| Abstract |
A new technical approach is strongly required to improve productivity and quality as well as safety on the jobsite in the construction industry. In general, the construction equipment and machine needs to be proven feasible before being development. The major objective of this paper is to propose an economic feasibility forecasting model and to apply the model for teleoperated pipe manipulator which is now under development. This study concludes that the development of the teleoperated pipe manipulator is recommended from the economic viewpoints. |
