Abstract
AbstractThis work presents an investigation of robotic technologies' effectiveness in construction activities. Sixty‐four highly relevant publications were identified from the database. By systematically reviewing the publications, the secondary data that are of interest to the review theme were retrieved and further evaluated. It is found that robotic technologies for automated construction is a growing field, where the taxonomy of robot was reflected in a diversified manner in the existing studies, ranging from the muscular guy—robotic manipulator—to the dexterous ones—unmanned aerial vehicle, autonomous mobile robot, automated guided vehicle, autonomous construction machinery and quadruped robot. In addition, the existing studies have provided substantial evidence to reveal the robotic technologies' effectiveness against traditional human methods in construction scenarios, and the measures for effectiveness consisted of productivity, precision, and success rate. With the evidence, it seems that the construction sector could benefit from robotic technologies to achieve intelligent workflows. Furthermore, based on the existing knowledge foundation in the current literature, a theoretical framework for future research direction is proposed. The framework envisages the integration of large models with construction robots to address operational inefficiencies, reduce costs, and simplify management.
