Abstract
Up to now there are robots specializing in stationary industrial operations. The building industry is a highly diversified and dynamic branch and, therefore, robotic systems are not used on the construction site during the building process at all or in a very limited way to handle loads. There exist robotic wall building systems based on mobile machines that can make linear masonry structures (fence, wall). Because of the large dimensions and weight of these machines, however, they require a large working space and, therefore, they are not applicable for the construction of planar structures. The building industry lags behind the other sectors in the use of robotic systems, and due to a great number of human injuries and large volumes of loads moved by human power during the construction process the introduction of a wall building robotic system is an issue of utmost urgency. The paper deals with the concept and design of a self-acting wall building industrial robotic device for the construction of small to medium-sized structures using the dry wall and precision masonry technology.
