To achieve this goal, organization and logistics are to be in line with construction environment. With all these requirements met, chances for automating masonry are good. A robot at a price of 430,000 DM, used for automatic masonry on the site, is profitable when reaching a depositing time of 40 secs per stone. Moreover, if one refers to solutions existing in the manufacturing industry, an automation of masonry seems very promising.
