Correction: While the Hadrian X is capable of laying bricks 12x larger than standard house bricks, the bricks used to reach the record of 200 bricks in one hour were 5x larger than standard house bricks.
Or other wise known as a standard four inch block. They got guys who lay 140 of them in 20 minutes. Fastest trowel on the block. That equals 420 block an hour. Machine needs to catch up. Oh and they are on half lap bond with mortar on them. Lol.
@@beardedbricky7834 it uses an in-house adhesive that "holds stronger and results in greater thermal and acoustic properties than traditional mortar."
I was helper for almost 2 years. We had two masons that would regularly lay 1,500 brick a day on straight walls. One white guy one Mexican guy. They were both masters. The white guy was better only because he'd been doing it since he was 8 with his father. The arches and coins he could lay were simply awesome and he could really put them down in a straight wall. With 4 masons on a wall he would lay 40% of it. Same with Javier he just didn't have the technical side down as well. They were making 30 an hour in 91.

I worked on a brick crew...as a laborer. On a straight run, Dan could lay brick as fast as I picked them up and handed them to him face out. He would lay 5 cubes(2500) a day. This machine would lay 1,000, and I'm being generous.

Prefabricated factory panels will take over before this sort of thing does. These machines generally rely on the building sites being flat with plenty of room to all sides of the structures.

prefabricated building panels were heavily used in the 1950s, and resulted in a lot of buildings that were structurally unsound, because they're literally like a stack of cards and with only a few joints along huge panels, they're not as flexible as buildings made from smaller elements, like bricks, and thus don't stand well against weather and earthquake. They all required additional bracing to remain sturdy enough to be safe, but that also means you have a bunch of bracing that when worn, becomes soft and then the building starts to wobble in strong wind

I was born in Vinnytsia, Ukraine, in 1967. My father had built our house in 1953. He used the Ciment, Bricks, and Clay and Straw Bricks . Also the walls are 24 inches thick. It is a strong house and does not even require an A/C. Only in the winter season a few hours a minimum needs to warm house inside. My father's house keeps temperature inside very comfort in any of the seasons. My younger sister is living in our father's house. I have been living in the State of Delaware since 1998. My house was built by 2016, and I called it a Wooden Shelter. My house in Delaware will never compare to my father's house in Ukraine. There's a heatwave on the East Coast right now. My A/C never stops to cool down my house. America needs to radically change construction to build houses. American houses should have thick walls and be packed with a special ceiling to keep the heat out of the roof and house. At the same time, new construction will save the world from global heating by A/C.
Did you see the gaps in the bricks Hadrian x lays? That is a major problem for insulation and waterproofing. The wall does not seem structurally sound. That glue will not hold like mortar or cement.
Yeah but they have never been used to build buildings. There's a lot of incredible tech in distribution centers and factories that can be applied to other industries but haven't.
Except this is basically bringing the factory to your site, brick laying is physically detrimental to the people who lay them, this robot can effectively lay 24\7 as long its inventory is kept up, no sick days no worker injuries, id say itd be far cheaper long term than a workforce of human brick layers
The article I read about the Hadrian X said it lays 500 bricks per hour and this video says 200 . Also the article said that the robot can work 24/7 because it doesn't need to eat or sleep,I beg to differ because there is a man on site monitoring this robot and he needs to eat and sleep. Next , the article said that the robot could lay the bricks in any weather, while that is wrong too because the adhesive will not dry correctly in inclement weather. Finally bricks and blocks are 2 different things.
robots are as good as they are maintained. If we can't handle ordinary cars in order for a quite some time what makes you believe a high-tech very customized piece of equipment gonna go for a long time. Even if it does, I very much doubt it will be any comparable to what a low paid construction worker does over a month-time period.
Excellent now this robot can be used to build more schools, universities, libraries, community centers yea that will never happen because humanity doesn't exist anymore
Is that grey brick better than cinder block? I ask because cinder block is awful construction material suitable only for disposable commercial construction.
It's crazy how almost 60 yrs old brick laying mechanical robot is still more productive and way more cheaper than modern crazy expensive slow arm robots.
@@roadsigncheems1566 - At some point someone will be able to cheaply 3D print a robot that can do everything a Construction worker/ Farm worker can do, once society has a cheap-disposable work force that is NOT conscience then we will be able to move away from humans having to work to survive. I still believe that people will need work, but it will end up being work that they want to do.
Here's a theory. I think it's very possible that with the extreme replacement of human labor via autonomous tech will come a situation of needing to enforce a wage loss fee/ tax targeting the companies using robots to replace human roles, as a way to protect the economy and help the lower class survive. Even with some expense for using a robot it will still save the company tons in the all areas of efficiency and give lower total operating costs for facilities(no bathrooms, no lights, no heat, and most importantly no law suits). Although with still no means of income in for the replaced workers that funding will then need to go to the citizens who are unqualified to work anymore in order to keep the public majority from literally turning the country into chaos. So that stimulus check was weird right almost felt like an allowance? Well it will be just like that or maybe the pandemic unemployment where everyone gets about the same per week. Essentially there will be a Nonworking class where you don't need to work and you have a fixed level of wealth that you will obtain over your lifetime but live comfortably and worry-free, and then the working class for those who decide to pursue success and greater wealth beyond what is determined as fit by the gov. That working class will have it's own society consisting of things unimaginable to the lower class just like how it is currently, except Substantially less suffering as everybody will have the necessities to be happy.
Interesting read, I agree with most of your proposal, but I hope that it would only amount to being transistional, we cannot afford a continuation of the divisive Left/Right narrative or any variance. The ever increasing efficiency of AI directed automation technology and subsequent ephemeralization(ability to create more with less) trend will continue, the problem we need to address is the inevitable demise of Capitalism. This perennial Left/Right narrative is proving increasingly toxic and becoming increasingly irrelevant in the context of our science and applied technology. The advent of AI directed autonomous robotic systems will erode a foundational principle for the continued viability of capitalism, and that priniciple is *labour for income'.* Some 40% of cognitive & manually repetitive jobs will go in the coming decade or so. For example in the USA where there are 3.5 million truck drivers, it is estimated the savings of AI directed autonomous vehicular freight delivery to be $168 billion/year in saved fuel ($35 billion), reduced labor costs ($70 billion), fewer accidents ($36 billion) and increased productivity and equipment utilization ($27 billion). That is an incredibly high incentive to oust drivers - in fact the efficiencies gained would actually be enough to pay the drivers their $40,000 a year salary to stay home and still save almost $100 billion per year. Its not just drivers in the cross-hairs, lawyers, radiologists, doctors, call center workers, accountants, most manufacturing jobs, teachers, clerical, retail...etc. Think cognitive repetitive and manual repetitive or essentially 40% of all US jobs are in the cross-hairs to be done by AI directed automation and the attitude we should have towards this isn't protectionism but an enthusiasm to see extraordinary efficiency gains coupled with the plummeting of fatalities due to human error, reduced environmental impact. We should be rooting for similar gains in efficiency outcomes in as many cognitive repetitive & manually repetitive jobs(approx 40% of all jobs in the US both blue & white collar) throughout the economy and *if we are not then we should be calling into question 20th century thinking about the economy!*
Interesting, but a comment you made stood out. " help the lower class survive" A brick layer is "lower class"? Who else would you put in that category? Anyone in the trades or works with their hands? Is it because of how much money they make? How much money would they have to make in your opinion not to be in this "lower" category?
European builders secure brick/block with mortar an invention going back to the Roman Empire, suppose Australians have mastered fresh air as the way forward unless I'm missing something?
Nikola motor with fake running truck video are valued at $25 Billions, yet this construction robotic truck actually built many display buildings valued at less than $0.1 Billion, they should have it list on Nasdaq to get attention.
@@Vildayyan2003 did you even listen to the video. The 2 minute mark is not talking about this but another. If you want to know about what type of adhesive/ mortar this particular robot uses, watch and listen from 0:55
Who lays the mortar, tests the consistency, fits the ties, measures the cuts, cuts the blocks, checks the levels, points the joints, makes the tea, goes for the butties, tells the jokes, creates the experience, sells the service??? If the robot can’t do that, or drive it self to the job on time, it will need a human. Innovate but don’t isolate ✌️
Not the intention of the company to replace human brick layers my bu#$. The majority of businesses main goal is to be profitable. The best way to be profitable is take the human factor out of jobs that require repetitive motion that results in worker's compensation claims. The robot can work 24/7, never needs a break, lunch hour, vacation or sick days. I remember when Edelbrock brought in robots to build and test all of their engine performance products. The parking lot use to have a couple hundred employee cars, five days a week. Now they have about 20 employees and the parking lot is rented out for storage to a local car dealer. Don't let any of these companies tell you that the goal is not to replace human workers.
The Hadrian X don't have " court dates", will show up next day after pay-day, no hang over, absent Monday mornings, do not back talk, no gossip, no clickes, don't pick him up every morning tooting the horn and waking up its neighbors whom most likely throw eggs at you, need money in advance because his family in Mexico needs money, borrow money, do not smoke, do not need help filling out his employment application, no loud radio listening to Sinaloa banda music which even most mexicans hate, do not hide materilas so it can go home early, do not steal materials and go on weekends to use those materils on his side clients, do not throw used toilet paper on floor instead in trash can, do not stare at your client's daughters and wife, and many things I have encountered during my 47 years in construction. I would like to buy one. How can I get in touch with a seller?

I have been living in the State of Delaware since 1998. My house was built by 2016, and I called it a Wooden Shelter. My house in Delaware will never compare to my father's house in Ukraine. There's a heatwave on the East Coast right now. My A/C never stops to cool down my house.
America needs to radically change construction to build houses. American houses should have thick walls and be packed with a special ceiling to keep the heat out of the roof and house. At the same time, new construction will save the world from global heating by A/C.
Did you see the gaps in the bricks Hadrian x lays? That is a major problem for insulation and waterproofing. The wall does not seem structurally sound. That glue will not hold like mortar or cement.
It doesn't seem like such a breakthrough for me. Robots have been used in factories to do way more complex work for a long time.
Yeah ,Mazak mazatrol is fully automated . This is just a CNC crane with a grab and a concrete pump/special adhesive .
Yeah but they have never been used to build buildings. There's a lot of incredible tech in distribution centers and factories that can be applied to other industries but haven't.
Except this is basically bringing the factory to your site, brick laying is physically detrimental to the people who lay them, this robot can effectively lay 24\7 as long its inventory is kept up, no sick days no worker injuries, id say itd be far cheaper long term than a workforce of human brick layers
perfect industry for automation!
Why, so I can be put out of work?
@@Idontwantahandle6669 yes
Where's the mortar where's the cement that holds the bricks together
i wouldn't live in these homes tbh
“Block”
Lead! Line up!
The article I read about the Hadrian X said it lays 500 bricks per hour and this video says 200 . Also the article said that the robot can work 24/7 because it doesn't need to eat or sleep,I beg to differ because there is a man on site monitoring this robot and he needs to eat and sleep. Next , the article said that the robot could lay the bricks in any weather, while that is wrong too because the adhesive will not dry correctly in inclement weather. Finally bricks and blocks are 2 different things.
It never occurred to you that the people can go home and different people can come to work?
Thanks for the usefull infos on the price pal!!!
This is great. Robots are so helpful, strong, fast and powerful.
robots are as good as they are maintained. If we can't handle ordinary cars in order for a quite some time what makes you believe a high-tech very customized piece of equipment gonna go for a long time. Even if it does, I very much doubt it will be any comparable to what a low paid construction worker does over a month-time period.
This machine is the equivalent of paying Gordon Ramsay to work at Burger King.
Just needs the mortar laying robot, the rebar laying robot and the grout laying robot.
Excellent now this robot can be used to build more schools, universities, libraries, community centers yea that will never happen because humanity doesn't exist anymore
These machines will come into their own when they can do complex structures without all the setting out time.
How much is a machine ? I would to know how areas the machine will need? After that, how the machine is working or repair if it has got problem.
Keep out jobs. This will only make the rich richer and the poor poorer
This is awesome 👏 I wanna get a brick house built by this robot can I be a tester In The USA my family needs our first home we are renting
Is that grey brick better than cinder block? I ask because cinder block is awful construction material suitable only for disposable commercial construction.
It's crazy how almost 60 yrs old brick laying mechanical robot is still more productive and way more cheaper than modern crazy expensive slow arm robots.
Human bricklayer puts the mortar on the bricks, Hardian X seems to skip that portion and uses aircrete block (inferior product).
Home that no one will be able to afford, because there won’t be any jobs.
Unemployment due to machines is actually a good thing, believe it or not.
@@austinbevis4266 elaborate please, i'm having a hard time understanding
@@roadsigncheems1566 - At some point someone will be able to cheaply 3D print a robot that can do everything a Construction worker/ Farm worker can do, once society has a cheap-disposable work force that is NOT conscience then we will be able to move away from humans having to work to survive. I still believe that people will need work, but it will end up being work that they want to do.

I wonder if it can tidy up after messy joiners
incredible
The name is GENIUS.
Rebar?
200 bricks in an hour is not impressive. A truly optimized robot bricklayer should be laying 60 bricks every minute.
What about at high floors
hadrian x can only do 2 storey houses only
What about the cement?
That is ridicules the foundations are not going to be strong without mortar.
no mortar?
Nice to meet ya. I'm juggernaut
Here's a theory. I think it's very possible that with the extreme replacement of human labor via autonomous tech will come a situation of needing to enforce a wage loss fee/ tax targeting the companies using robots to replace human roles, as a way to protect the economy and help the lower class survive. Even with some expense for using a robot it will still save the company tons in the all areas of efficiency and give lower total operating costs for facilities(no bathrooms, no lights, no heat, and most importantly no law suits). Although with still no means of income in for the replaced workers that funding will then need to go to the citizens who are unqualified to work anymore in order to keep the public majority from literally turning the country into chaos. So that stimulus check was weird right almost felt like an allowance? Well it will be just like that or maybe the pandemic unemployment where everyone gets about the same per week. Essentially there will be a Nonworking class where you don't need to work and you have a fixed level of wealth that you will obtain over your lifetime but live comfortably and worry-free, and then the working class for those who decide to pursue success and greater wealth beyond what is determined as fit by the gov. That working class will have it's own society consisting of things unimaginable to the lower class just like how it is currently, except Substantially less suffering as everybody will have the necessities to be happy.
Interesting read, I agree with most of your proposal, but I hope that it would only amount to being transistional, we cannot afford a continuation of the divisive Left/Right narrative or any variance. The ever increasing efficiency of AI directed automation technology and subsequent ephemeralization(ability to create more with less) trend will continue, the problem we need to address is the inevitable demise of Capitalism. This perennial Left/Right narrative is proving increasingly toxic and becoming increasingly irrelevant in the context of our science and applied technology. The advent of AI directed autonomous robotic systems will erode a foundational principle for the continued viability of capitalism, and that priniciple is *labour for income'.* Some 40% of cognitive & manually repetitive jobs will go in the coming decade or so. For example in the USA where there are 3.5 million truck drivers, it is estimated the savings of AI directed autonomous vehicular freight delivery to be $168 billion/year in saved fuel ($35 billion), reduced labor costs ($70 billion), fewer accidents ($36 billion) and increased productivity and equipment utilization ($27 billion). That is an incredibly high incentive to oust drivers - in fact the efficiencies gained would actually be enough to pay the drivers their $40,000 a year salary to stay home and still save almost $100 billion per year. Its not just drivers in the cross-hairs, lawyers, radiologists, doctors, call center workers, accountants, most manufacturing jobs, teachers, clerical, retail...etc. Think cognitive repetitive and manual repetitive or essentially 40% of all US jobs are in the cross-hairs to be done by AI directed automation and the attitude we should have towards this isn't protectionism but an enthusiasm to see extraordinary efficiency gains coupled with the plummeting of fatalities due to human error, reduced environmental impact. We should be rooting for similar gains in efficiency outcomes in as many cognitive repetitive & manually repetitive jobs(approx 40% of all jobs in the US both blue & white collar) throughout the economy and *if we are not then we should be calling into question 20th century thinking about the economy!*
The government doesn’t care about. As the old Soviet saying goes, “if you do not work, you do not eat”.
Interesting, but a comment you made stood out. " help the lower class survive"
A brick layer is "lower class"?
Who else would you put in that category? Anyone in the trades or works with their hands?
Is it because of how much money they make?
How much money would they have to make in your opinion not to be in this "lower" category?
No mortar on the FBR
What about laying cement
European builders secure brick/block with mortar an invention going back to the Roman Empire, suppose Australians have mastered fresh air as the way forward unless I'm missing something?
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
U mean by fresh air living in the woods.
All that savings and houses will still be expensive
Time for smart technology
brick is plural for brick. As a mason I just felt I should address that
I didn’t see their block machine spread mortar… might want to put some mortar on those so the house doesn’t blow over lol
Its stacking blocks that's all
How is this laying bricks without cement and the bricks are layed with massive gaps...
💯💯💯💯💯💯💯😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
It uses a special adhesive... did you not watch the video bro? ffs
Their brickkaying materials are much more impressive than their bricklaying robot - will they be producing that independently?
the ahesive only works for the special brick
@@photovideooz4084 I understand, but the company/robot's productivity seemed based more on their specialized light-weight & efficient materials...
the machine forgot to put cement between the bricks!
so you guys got lazy at getting *pricing information* smh

Hanzhen harmonic drive gear , robot arm gear , over 30 years experience
Who lays the mortar, tests the consistency, fits the ties, measures the cuts, cuts the blocks, checks the levels, points the joints, makes the tea, goes for the butties, tells the jokes, creates the experience, sells the service??? If the robot can’t do that, or drive it self to the job on time, it will need a human. Innovate but don’t isolate ✌️
About 50sqares ft a day of stone s sometimes more if I don't need to set up the job and feed another mason....
Not the intention of the company to replace human brick layers my bu#$. The majority of businesses main goal is to be profitable. The best way to be profitable is take the human factor out of jobs that require repetitive motion that results in worker's compensation claims. The robot can work 24/7, never needs a break, lunch hour, vacation or sick days. I remember when Edelbrock brought in robots to build and test all of their engine performance products. The parking lot use to have a couple hundred employee cars, five days a week. Now they have about 20 employees and the parking lot is rented out for storage to a local car dealer. Don't let any of these companies tell you that the goal is not to replace human workers.

The Hadrian X don't have " court dates", will show up next day after pay-day, no hang over, absent Monday mornings, do not back talk, no gossip, no clickes, don't pick him up every morning tooting the horn and waking up its neighbors whom most likely throw eggs at you, need money in advance because his family in Mexico needs money, borrow money, do not smoke, do not need help filling out his employment application, no loud radio listening to Sinaloa banda music which even most mexicans hate, do not hide materilas so it can go home early, do not steal materials and go on weekends to use those materils on his side clients, do not throw used toilet paper on floor instead in trash can, do not stare at your client's daughters and wife, and many things I have encountered during my 47 years in construction. I would like to buy one. How can I get in touch with a seller?
And not one drop of brick mortar...
But can it lay Stones??? Mortar! Springer s keystone!
Dey dook ar djaaabs!
Just what we need, more robots/machines to take away jobs. They say humans are clever, but I find it hard to believe this when we design robots/machines to take away jobs and people’s livelihoods.
there will be jobs for looking after the machines on the construction site, at least 2-3 people needed.
@@photovideooz4084 Yeah but these robots will take away more jobs than would be created looking after it.
@@photovideooz4084 human tech notions won’t exist in 10 years time, there are robots being designed to remove humans from such roles.

i thought in latin american countries the brick layer labour cost are low, not feasible for such expensive machine.
You're fired! Good luck never comeback again anymore time!
Why is the brickwork all smudged, also none of the block work no half-bond. ..
Oh what happens to all those bricklayers
Nothing. That machine costs 100 x us and still can’t keep up. We will be here for some time to come. Sad thing is we can’t get the grants or loans the robotics companies can. You would really see some action if we could get that money!
