How Construction Uses These 3 Tech Innovations

    During the last decade, once only pastime gadgets have now become sophisticated equipment that can be used as tools for various purposes and applications. The industry of construction uses some of these tech innovations and emerging technology to increase efficiency in production and the overall process of construction. Deadlines are important in every business and sector, as time equals profits – in construction, timing is everything due to the fragmented nature of the industry. Here is how construction uses 3 tech innovations that were once entertainment gadgets.

    The Use of Lasers in Construction: Laser Scanning

    Laser scanning can provide valuable data that represents the base model for BIM coordination, providing more data than traditionally used land survey equipment. Lasers are attached to a tripod and look like an average piece of land survey equipment for construction. However, laser scanners can collect 28 million points per three minutes.

    Photography in Construction: 360-degree Photo Documenting

    Photography is more than accessible, inexpensive, and affordable, as well as rather useful in construction. 360-degree camera shoots can capture environments and rooms in entirety. Photo documentation can then be used in client communication by representing an effective visual presentation. Photo documentation also helps with project planning and eases communication and understanding between different construction teams.  

    The Use of Drones in Construction

    Drones can be used for monitoring on construction sites and can also be utilized in land survey. With the ability to conduct an effective land survey in 3 minutes, drones are more often used in construction. Drones can capture photographs and videos up to 400 feet from the ground, which provides a valuable perspective in construction. Drones can perform automated operations, which contributes to time-saving and overall efficiency.
