Solution Overview
Problem
In construction section division, when soil transportation directions differ at boundary places, separate work is required for each section, leading to inefficiencies and potential elevation differences, especially when one section is not fully cut, necessitating additional work at higher elevations.
Innovation Solution
A construction section division device that plans soil transportation volumes and clusters cut and fill blocks based on displacement vectors, height differences, and soil transportation directions to minimize workload and optimize section division.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Manufacturing precision
If division of cut section is performed at boundary where soil transportation direction changes, then soil volume distribution can be optimized, but work efficiency decreases due to separate work requirements and potential elevation differences
Solution Approach 1:
The construction site is divided into multiple cut sections and fill sections based on soil transportation directions. The boundary places where soil transportation directions differ are identified as division points. This segmentation allows optimized soil volume distribution while managing work complexity through systematic organization of separate work areas.
Solution Approach 2:
The method dynamically determines division points based on actual soil transportation requirements and elevation differences. When a cut section has a greater cut height than an adjacent cut section at the boundary, the method identifies this as a division point, allowing flexible adaptation to varying work conditions and optimizing both soil volume distribution and work efficiency.
2Device complexity
If one cut section is not fully cut when boundary has great cut height, then work can be simplified, but elevation difference occurs requiring additional work at higher elevation
Solution Approach 1:
Before performing cut work, the method evaluates the cut heights of adjacent cut sections at boundary places. When one section has a greater cut height than the other, the method preliminarily identifies this as a division point and adjusts the work plan accordingly. This preliminary action prevents elevation differences and avoids the need for additional work at higher elevations.
Solution Approach 2:
The method continuously monitors and compares cut heights at boundary places during the planning phase. When a height difference is detected that would cause elevation inconsistencies, the system provides feedback by identifying division points and adjusting the division scheme. This feedback mechanism ensures elevation consistency while simplifying work complexity.

AI summary
A construction section division device includes: a planner that plans a soil transportation volume from each cut block of a plurality of cut blocks having a higher height before construction than a height after construction to each fill block of a plurality of fill blocks having a lower height before construction than a height after construction at a construction site divided into a plurality of blocks, by minimizing a workload based on a length of a displacement vector from each cut block to each fill block under a predetermined limiting condition; and a clusterer that performs clustering on the plurality of cut blocks into a first desired number of cut sections, and performs clustering on the plurality of fill blocks into a second desired number of fill sections. The clusterer computes a degree of difference between cut blocks and a degree of difference between fill blocks by using a height before construction of the cut block and the fill block, and a soil transportation vector representing a soil transportation volume and a direction being cut from the cut block and filling the fill block, and performs the clustering, based on the computed degree of difference.
