Development of automated control systems at the construction stage (using the example of linear objects)

Abstract

The research is aimed at improving production processes using information modeling technologies, along with the examination of the Trimble 3D Grade Control system for the construction of linear facilities; determining the economic efficiency of this system, the speed and quality of work; creating an automated control system for road construction on the basis of 3D leveling and 3D design technologies, and developing a simulation model. An automated control system is investigated. The economic effect of 3D leveling during the reconstruction of the section of the Vilyui federal highway, which involved the preparation of the base for asphalt paving, is calculated. It is established that economic efficiency is increased due to an increase in the speed and quality of the work. The operation of the automated control system during the construction of linear facilities is demonstrated. The technologies of information modeling are studied. The process system during the construction of linear facilities is characterized. The article reveals several effects and advantages of incorporating 3D leveling technology into road construction management, including a threefold increase in the speed and quality of finishing planning works, the prevention of unnecessary reconstruction (only in the case of project modifications), the elimination of demarcation survey operations, real-time computation of earthwork quantities, and enhanced efficiency for the chief engineer. The implementation of information modeling technologies helps to improve the management model of production processes. Both theoretical and experimental research, as well as the development of new technical solutions and designs for machines and working bodies, comprise topical directions in the improvement of machines for the construction of linear facilities.
