Ways Automation is Changing the Industry of Construction

    The industry of construction is one of the biggest sectors in the world, bringing over 10 trillion dollars in annual revenue across the globe. Despite the obvious and undisputable profitability, many companies are struggling due to numerous challenges in the industry. Some of these challenges are being solved with the use of tech innovation, such as the problem of safety and shortage in labor. Even though some construction companies are enjoying the benefits of tech integrations and tech adoption, the rate of adopting technology in construction is still too low. On the other hand, automation through tech adoption can change the industry and tackle many problems.

    Inspection of Construction Sites as an Automated Process

    For a more efficient process of inspection and monitor inventory, some construction companies are turning to the use of drones. With the use of automation in monitoring and inspection, contractors are also tackling the problem of labor shortages. With over 200,000 working positions waiting to be filled in the sector of construction, automation can satisfy some of the demands when it comes to monitoring and inspection for improved safety as well.

    Enhancing Efficiency in Production with Automation

    The lack of construction workers equals a deflated level of productivity. In the industry of construction, deadlines are more than important, and breaking a deadline in any way often means losing money. With the shortage of labor in the industry, efficiency may be decreased for some construction companies where there are fewer workers than needed for the project. Engineers are already creating and designing robots for construction work, that can take over some repetitive tasks that demand time and physical strength. Semi-Automated Mason is a model of a robot intended for construction work, capable of laying more than a couple of thousand bricks in a single day. Robotics and robots such as SAM can contribute to the overall efficiency and productivity in construction.
