Abstract
AbstractThe successful completion of modular-based heavy industrial construction projects relies heavily on safe and efficient crane operations, which have a direct impact on project productivity. Corresponding to the design of reliable crane operations, this paper proposes three-dimensional (3D) visualization-based motion planning for mobile cranes that integrates 3D visualization with mathematical algorithms based on “what if” scenarios. This method facilitates the design of collision-free mobile crane operations for a large number of lifts in congested areas. The proposed methodology is established based on two types of interactive analyses: (1) rotation analysis to build 3D visualization for the motions of crane body configurations; and (2) spatial analysis to detect potential collision errors in order to design collision-free crane operations. The rotation analysis accounts for calculating the angles describing the orientations of mechanical elements in the crane system by reading the coordinates of ...
