Abstract
In concrete placement, it is extremely important to transfer the empirical knowledge of skilled workers to inexperienced workers, because there are many manual-based operations, such as the operation of construction instruments. In the Japanese construction industry, succession of skills is an urgent issue because it is expected that many skilled workers will retire in succession due to the aging progresses. Specifically, there is the possibility that empirical knowledge related to the behavior of skilled workers can be handed over to the next generation by measuring and accumulating it and converting it to explicit knowledge. However, it is not clear whether this measurement is possible or not.
The purpose of this study is verify the feasibility of the measurement of empirical knowledge related to the behavior of skilled workers by using various measurement techniques. In this paper, we report the measurement method of the insertion position and timing of vibrator related to concrete placement in relation to skill succession and the measurement of differences according to each individual.
