Research on Optimization of Tower Crane Selection Scheme for Prefabricated Building Based on Value Engineering
Publication: ICCREM 2023
ABSTRACT
With the continuous scale of prefabricated buildings, which requires multiple tower cranes to complete the lifting task. The selection of tower cranes is restricted by many factors. This paper first through literature and actual research, to establish the assembly type tower crane selection program process, analysis of the advantages and disadvantages of different types of tower cranes and the scope of application, combined with the actual situation of the project to determine the type of tower crane; then analyze the influence factors of tower crane selection for preliminary selection plan determination, and finally establish a value engineering model to compare the value coefficient to determine the final selection plan. The validity of the method is verified through actual cases, which not only takes into account the construction characteristics of assembled buildings, but also makes cost optimization on the basis of ensuring functionality, and provides a scientific decision basis for tower crane selection.
