Robotic construction will eventually take over the construction industry. Especially once robotic transportation becomes possible.
There are many complex processes being performed at construction sites. Many steps take highly optimized machines to perform robotically but that a single human can do just by changing tools.
Because of these processes, automating the entire construction process would be very expensive to do right at the site.
All parts would have be modularized so they could be snapped together. Or robots will have to be able to change tools. Or parts will have to be moved from robot to robot, with as much work being done before parts are actually brought to the site.
Either way, it will be interesting to see how it works out.
