A solution for the rational dispatching of concrete transport vehicles

The amount of concrete needed in the construction of projects is enormous. The concrete dispatching in construction is, however, chaotic and causes grievous waste due to the tight construction schedule, heavy tasks, and improper transport vehicle dispatching by the constructor. This paper proposes a...

description The amount of concrete needed in the construction of projects is enormous. The concrete dispatching in construction is, however, chaotic and causes grievous waste due to the tight construction schedule, heavy tasks, and improper transport vehicle dispatching by the constructor. This paper proposes a more realistic objective function in the vehicle dispatching algorithm and offers a solution to the rational dispatching of concrete transport vehicles. The analysis of the calculation example validates the feasibility of the built model, which provides more appropriate dispatching and more balanced distribution, meets the needs of the worksite and mixing station to the greatest extent and improves the level of project refinement and process management. Therefore, the model is worth promoting in future practice.
