Development of an Algorithm for Crane Trajectory Distance Calculation for Erection of Precast Concrete Members

Reducing the construction time for large logistics buildings can result in reduced construction management costs and economic gains from early operation. A large logistics building with a heavy load and long spans was constructed as a precast concrete (PC) structure, which required the use of a sizable crane to lift heavy PC members. A basic analytical approach was employed to resolve potential errors in the planning of PC member erection and to build a systematic erection plan. Calculation techniques for the trajectory distance that use the crane location were applied to select an erection plan that minimizes crane work. A crane trajectory distance calculation algorithm for sustainable PC member erection in large logistics buildings with heavy loads and long spans has been developed. The developed model aids in creating simulation and optimization models to ensure the minimal usage of cranes in the future and in determining the cost, construction time, CO2 emissions, and energy use for each erection plan.
