Abstract (en)

Automated assembly of building shell (comprised of facades, roofs, dividing walls and ceilings) in connection with building from phase of design to phase of erection, comprising all phases of optimized assembly of building shell. In particular, the assembly of sandwich panels onto metal sub-frame, said sub-frame being carrying member of roofs and facades is disclosed. This system can be used in way of analogy for assembly of glass facades and other elements of building shell where the basic element is finished enough to have it directly mounted or attached or otherwise incorporated into building shell. An automated assembly, positioning elements of a building shell in correct sequence onto a correct position into the building shell is disclosed. A method for automated assembly using a robot working in the outside environment without direct involvement of assembly workforce is further disclosed. This method provides for tracking ability and is essentially automated.
