An Investigation on the Existing Barriers and Possible Measures for the Implementation of Automation Technology in Indian Construction Industry
In India complaints of poor quality and unsafe practice of construction have been traditional problems which have to be rectified as the industry is at rapidly growing phase. Automation technologies have a promising potential which can overcome various barriers and enhances the efficiency and productivity of construction firms. Automation can be broadly implemented in all the phases of construction from initial design through onsite execution, maintenance and management control over the project. By identifying the major barriers for implementation in Onsite construction and suggesting the possible measures to overcome them, contribution could be made in promoting the available robotics and automation technologies and provide scope for better understanding and facilitating. This paper discusses the existing state of automation and robotics in Indian construction industry and stimulates the future potential of construction firms. Further discussions are made on major barriers for implementation of automated technologies, and certain areas where automation technologies can be adopted will be presented.
