Automated lift planning methods for mobile cranes
Abstract The precise operation of mobile cranes affects the safety and efficiency of lift works. But it is difficult for project managers to make an appropriate lift plan in the conventionally manual way due to the complexities and dynamics of sites. Therefore, automated methods for lift planning were developed. However, these methods are not yet extensively employed in construction practices, and practitioners still make lift planning experientially and intuitively. Therefore, a systematic review of these methods is in need to help researchers identify existing research limitations and future research directions. This paper aims to present a literature review of automated lift planning for mobile cranes. The methods and techniques in crane selection, localization and path planning are analyzed respectively with benefits and limitations. Furthermore, the systematicness of crane operation is discussed, and future research directions and suggestions for practices are proposed. This will contribute to the body of knowledge and practice in the automated operation of mobile cranes.
