ACQBUILT Inc., a leading panelized construction company in Canada, has been actively investing andparticipating in research projects with the University of Alberta in recent years. The principal investigator, hassuccessfully completed several research projects with ACQBUILT encompassing productivity improvements,ergonomics analysis, lean manufacturing, and applications of information technology (e.g., RFID). The RFIDproject was the first known implementation of RFID technology in panelized construction. The factory layoutand ergonomics studies are still in progress. The PI and the industry partner for this proposed project haveidentified a shortage of information and communication technology in panelized construction, as well as theneed for application of the smart factory concept to improve the overall panelized construction process. Assuch, through this project the team is seeking to gain a more comprehensive understanding of, and toimplement improvements to, current practice in panelized construction. The primary objective of this researchis to improve panelized construction operation, including both on and offsite activities, by applying SmartFactory concepts. It will encompass (1) a review of current practice and time study for logistics and on-siteassembly; (2) time study of logistics and on-site assembly; (3) collection of live data stream using barcodetechnology; (4) application of artificial intelligence in logistics decision making; (5) visualization of logisticsdata using web application; (6) application of projection-based augmented reality in panel manufacturing; and(7) development of web-based construction site logistics planning application. This project will enhanceindustry practice by providing a guideline for applying the Smart Factory concept, providing an economical andsimple intelligent construction management system, and opening of new avenues for research in offsiteconstruction. The proposed research can be expected to benefit Canada more broadly in terms of improvedefficiency in the panelized construction sector; improved housing affordability; reduced environmental impactof the construction process; and job growth in the construction manufacturing sector

近年来，加拿大一家领先的镶板建筑公司Acqubuilt Inc.一直在与艾伯塔大学的研究项目中积极投资和参与研究项目。首席研究员Hassuccess通过ACQ构建的生产率提高，人体工程学分析，精益制造和信息技术的应用（例如RFID）完成了几项研究项目。 RFIDProject是RFID技术在套筒结构中的第一个已知实施。工厂布局和人体工程学研究仍在进行中。 PI和该拟议项目的行业合作伙伴已经识别了小组化结构中信息和通信技术的短缺，然后以智能工厂的概念来改善整体镶板的建筑过程。 Assuch，通过这个项目，该团队试图对当前的集板结构实践有更全面的理解和进一步的改进。这项研究的主要目的是通过应用SmartFactory概念来改善套筒构造操作，包括现场和异地活动。它将涵盖（1）对物流和次要组件的当前实践和时间研究的综述； （2）物流和现场组装的时间研究； （3）使用BarodeTechnology收集实时数据流； （4）人工智能在物流决策中的应用； （5）使用Web应用程序可视化物流数据； （6）在面板制造中应用基于投影的增强现实； （7）开发基于Web的建筑工地物流计划应用程序。该项目将通过提供应用智能工厂概念，提供经济和简单的智能建筑管理系统的指南，并开放新的研究途径，以提高工厂概念的指南。可以预期，拟议的研究将在综合建筑部门的提高效率方面更广泛地使加拿大受益；改善住房负担能力；减少了施工过程的环境影响；建筑业领域的工作增长
