CIB Working Commission, W119 on “Customized Industrial Construction” has been established as the successor of former TG57 on Industrialization in Construction and as a joint CIB-IAARC Commission. Prof Dr Ing Gerhard Girmscheid, ETH Zurich, Switzerland (Coordinator of the former TG57) and Prof Dr Ing Thomas Bock, Technische Universität München, Germany are the appointed Coordinators of this Working Commission.

VENUE

The workshop is hosted by the Chair for Building Realization and Robotics located at TUM within the Bavarian high tech cluster, the Master of Science Course “Advanced Construction and Building Technology” and by IAARC-Academy representing the research training program of the International Association for Automation and Robotics in Construction (IAARC). The workshop will concentrates international researchers, practitioners and selected top-students coming from 8 different professional backgrounds (Architecture, Industrial Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Civil Engineering, Business Science, Interior Design, Informatics, Mechanical Engineering).

AIMS

Industrialization in Construction will become more customer oriented. Systems for adaptable manufacturing and robot technologies will merge the best aspects of industrialization and automation with aspects of traditional manufacturing. Concepts of mass customization can be implemented via the application of robots in construction and building project/product life cycle as prefabrication processes, on site and in service as socio technical systems. Topics include, but are not limited to the following aspects of Automation and Robotics in Construction:

Industrialized Customization in Architecture: Mass Customization off site, Factory Production, Logistics and Factory Networks, Production

Logistics/ Site Automation and Robotics: Mass Customization on site, Site Automation, Site Robotics, Site Logistics for Automation, Systems and Technologies, Automation and Robot oriented Site Management

Service Science through Automation and Robotics: Mass Customization of performance oriented environments, Automation and Robotic Assisted Living, Service Robotics, Personal Assistance, Demographic change design and management of socio technical systems by human ambient technologies in daily life especially for aging society.

Automation and Robot Oriented Design: Design and Buildings Structures Enabling efficient use of Automation and Robotics, Modularization, Product Structure, Building Information Modeling

Automation and Robotics Deployment Strategies: Innovative business processes, automation and robot oriented management, human-machine communication, socio technical aspects, socioeconomic aspects, history of automation and robotics

Contributions of both theoretical and applicative interest are welcome.
