ACHIEVING SUSTAINABILITY IN CONSTRUCTION THROUGH AUTOMATION AND ROBOTICS

Abstract

Integrating robot-based automation into the design and construction processes offers not only improvement in accuracy, consistency and efficiency, but also opportunity to build more sustainably in the long term. This paper demonstrates the use of advanced building technology and construction robotics for smart energy solutions by summarizing the projects carried out in the Chair of Building Realization and Robotics (br2) at the Technical University of Munich (TUM). The paper intends to raise awareness of enhanced automation and robotic applications in the construction industry for sustainable outcomes.
