Industrialization in Construction will become more customer oriented. Systems for adaptable manufacturing and robot technologies will merge the best aspects of industrialization and automation with aspects of traditional manufacturing. Concepts of mass customization can be implemented via the application of robots in construction and building project/product life cycle as prefabrication processes, on site and in service as socio technical systems. Topics include, but are not limited to the following aspects of Automation and Robotics in Construction:

- Industrialized Customization in Architecture: Mass Customization off site, Factory Production, Logistics and Factory Networks, Production

- Logistics/ Site Automation and Robotics: Mass Customization on site, Site Automation, Site Robotics, Site Logistics for Automation, Systems and Technologies, Automation and Robot oriented Site Management

- Service Science through Automation and Robotics: Mass Customization of performance oriented environments, Automation and Robotic Assisted Living, Service Robotics, Personal Assistance, Demographic change design and management of socio technical systems by human ambient technologies in daily life especially for aging society

- Automation and Robot Oriented Design: Design and Buildings Structures Enabling efficient use of Automation and Robotics, Modularization, Product Structure, Building Information Modeling

-Automation and Robotics Deployment Strategies: Innovative business processes, automation and robot oriented management, human-machine communication, socio technical aspects, socioeconomic aspects, history of automation and robotics

Contributions of both theoretical and applicative interest are welcome.

Papers submitted to CIB W119 must not have been previously published and must not be currently under consideration for publication elsewhere. Papers will be reviewed with an emphasis on potential to contribute to the state of the art in the field.
