Yes, to lift 10t, you need the material and support to lift 10t. But a robot the size and weight of a child is much stronger and faster than any human and can easily kill one with the wrong movement. That's why they often are not allowed to work in the same location as humans.
There are currently exoskeletons developed to bring human strength back on par. But the speed race for anything repetitive is lost.
