This paper discusses construction and transportation by exploiting dynamic self-assembly. To do so, in this study, we introduce a multi-robotic system that can build coherent nest-like structures. The robotic agents walk around randomly on the 2D arena, and sometimes approach the blocks for grabbing or putting. By alternating these behavior, the nest-like structures locomote by maintaining the coherence of the entire shape consisting of elementary bricks by causing not only constructions but also destructions. A diffusive interaction between bricks allows the robotic agents efficient construction of the stable shape of the nest-like structures.
