Development of a Robotic Structural Steel Placement System

Abstract: ABSTRACT:The NIST Construction Metrology and Automation Group, in cooperation with the NIST Intelligent Systems Division, is researching robotic structural steel placement as part of a project to develop an Automated Steel Construction Testbed. This project was initiated in response to industry requests for advanced tools and methodologies to speed the erection of steel structures while maintaining or enhancing standards for worker safety and facility reliability. This initial effort integrates and extends pri… Show more

“…The Construction Metrology and Automation Group at NIST is currently instrumenting a RoboCrane platform with a three-dimensional, laser-based site measurement system (SMS) for absolute position control in all six degrees-of-freedom. [8] The project, part of the Automated Steel Construction Testbed, will be used to demonstrate autonomous steel pick and place operations. Follow-on experiments will incorporate registered LADAR (laser detection and ranging) scans of the work site for task analysis and navigation planning.…”
