A Computer-aided System for Planning and 3d- Visualization of Multiple Heavy Lifts Operations

چکیده
Planning multiple heavy lifts on heavy industrial projects has a major impact on construction sequencing, scheduling, budgeting and safety. Hence it has to be planned carefully to reduce the risk and to reduce the cost and duration of the projects. Traditional planning techniques are quite unproductive as they use iterative and trail and error techniques. This paper discusses the work done towards development of computer aided multiple heavy lift planning system. The features of the software tool developed on AutoCAD platform includesselection of cranes, crane location identification, 3D simulation of the multiple lifts and 4D representation of the site. The system developed is evaluated by using a case study. The features of the software like crane location, 3D simulation are evaluated using 25 lifts.

متن کاملOperation Sequencing Optimization in CAPP Using Hybrid Teaching-Learning Based Optimization (HTLBO)
Computer-aided process planning (CAPP) is an essential component in linking computer-aided design (CAD) and computer-aided manufacturing (CAM). Operation sequencing in CAPP is an essential activity. Each sequence of production operations which is produced in a process plan cannot be the best possible sequence every time in a changing production environment. As the complexity of the product incr...
متن کاملVisualizing Simulated Construction Operations
Simulation modeling and visualization can substantially help in designing complex construction operations and in making optimal decisions where traditional methods prove ineffective or are unfeasible. However, there has been limited use of simulation in planning construction operations due to the unavailability of appropriate support tools that can provide users with a more realistic and compre...
متن کاملAutomation for Mobile Crane Motion Planning in Industrial Projects
Mobile cranes are used to lift heavy modules in industrial projects. These heavy modules are often prefabricated and each project consists of a large number of lifts (e.g., a typical industrial project may have between 150 and 1000 modules to be lifted). To ensure the safety and efficiency of these lifting activities, crane motion planning is needed. However, in practice, most of the heavy lift...
متن کاملScene Graph and Frame Update Algorithms for Smooth and Scalable 3D Visualization of Simulated Construction Operations
One of the prime reasons inhibiting the widespread use of discrete-event simulation in construction planning is the absence of appropriate visual communication tools. Visualizing modeled operations in 3D is arguably the best form of communicating the logic and the inner working of simulation models and can be of immense help in establishing the credibility of analyses. New software development ...
