| Abstract |
The selection of the tower crane with the stock yard requires an organized study due to a large tendency of relying upon experience and intuition. Therefore, this paper proposes a prototype model using the genetic algorithm, the most used method lately. The transportation distance is considered as the key factor in location selection of the tower crane, applying the relationship between the length of the tower crane boom and the main gate as the constrain factor. Genetic algorithm was used to select a location of the tower crane in relation with the stock yard, and case-studied. In this case, stock yard was located the same, whereas that of the tower crane resulted in 7m difference due to constructability. Development of more advanced model and establishment of system should be made allowing more systematical construction management. |
