Abstract
According to the construction drawings of the assembly building, various prefabricated components are transported from the factory to the construction site. This study provides definitions of the construction units, building units, ordinary vehicles, motor vehicles, transportation shifts and transportation completion and quantitatively describes the collocation correlation between prefabricated components, construction units and building units and the substitution correlation between motor and ordinary vehicles. Subsequently, a transport vehicle deployment problem was proposed for prefabricated components. The objective of the optimization was to maximize the degree of completion of transportation. The constraint of the collocation correlation between prefabricated components and the substitution correlation between transport vehicles is proposed as a substitution equilibrium point method to deploy transportation vehicles. Simulation experiments showed that considering the matching correlation between prefabricated components and the substitution correlation of transport vehicles, the transport completion of prefabricated components could be increased. The substitution equilibrium point method proposed in this study exhibited a lower time complexity than the integer programming branch-and-bound method.
