#Aussie bricklaying robot can build house in two days WORLD, meet your new bricklayer. A robotic, fully-automated machine is being developed in Perth,
Local inventor Mark Pivac, an aeronautic and mechanical engineer, said his interest in the idea of developing the robot was sparked during Perth bricklaying crisis of 2005. eople have been laying bricks for about 6000 years and ever since the industrial revolution
and that what wee done. adrianthe robot named after the famous Roman defensive wall of antiquity will be commercialised first in WA, then nationally and then globally.
Laying 1000 bricks per hour, it can work day and night, with the potential to erect 150 homes a year.
It works by creating a 3d computer-aided design (CAD) laying program of a house or structure
then calculates the location of every brick and creates a program that is used to cut
and lay the bricks in sequence from a single, fixed location. A 28m articulated telescopic boom goes to work
and mortar or adhesive is delivered under pressure to the robotic laying head and applied to the brick
which is laid then in the correct sequence as per the program. The robot de-hacks, measures, scans for quality and cuts to length the bricks and routs for electrical and other services.
Mr Pivac father was a mining surveyor so he grew up around measuring instruments from a young age.
Nearly two billion bricks are manufactured a year in Australia, which added fuel to the fire of the inventor imagination.
