Abstract
Today we are poised on the verge of an automation revolution in the construction industry. A standard operational test and evaluation plan which will enable systematic and uniform examination of automated construction devices is required. Thus, this study has at its root two key goals: (1) to develop a test and evaluation plan suitable to be an industry standard, and (2) to use the plan to evaluate a specific device.
