Abstract

To address challenges in pouring efficiency, placement accuracy, and process automation for concrete work on the tower’s 2,600m2 single-floor area, this study employs fully-enclosed, large-scale cloud-based construction factory technology (an intelligent construction equipment integration platform). The system integrates rail-mounted concrete placers equipped with multimodal sensors to monitor: Electrical status, Motor temperature, Motor position (rotary encoder feedback), Hydraulic cylinder pressure, Telescoping positions of Booms 1/2/3 (relative to rotary mechanism centerline), Position limits of each boom, Remote feedback control enhances intelligent perception of initial target positions, while wireless communication networks enable real-time data transmission to a digital construction management platform for remote operation. Following the concrete pouring sequence, placers move along predefined trajectories, establishing a highly efficient, precise, and automated concrete placement methodology.
