Abstract

Low utilization rate of transport vehicle for prefabricated construction (PC) components is one important reason of the high transportation cost. On the basis of analyzing the geometrical characteristics of PC components and installation sequence, the vehicle load capability and principles are taken as constraint conditions, aiming to maximize load quantity, the optimization model of load and transportation for PC Components is established by programming theory. It can achieve reasonable division of bulk and organization of load transportation problem, control the load transportation cost. By comparative analysis in practice, it can be proved that the optimized load scheme is superior to the original one, it can reduce the number of transport vehicles used, and also significantly reduce the transportation cost. It will provide reference to the practice of transportation cost control of PC components.
