Solutions In Construction Management Final Presentation April 18, 2012 Manuel Campos, David Foreman, Matthew Huff, Jeremiah Miller
Sponsors Advisors • Mike Alder • BIM Coordinator • Dave Murphy • Safety Coordinator • Ryan Camer • BIM Integration Manager • Dave Balz • Prof. Clark Cory • Associate Professor • CGT • Prof. Terry Burton • Associate Professor • CGT
Special Thanks to…. • Professor Glotzbach (Server Space) • Purdue University • Holder Construction (Tablets) • Eric Zarowny (Tech Consultation) • CTO at mPlexus • Regina Brown • Purdue University
Problem Statement There is currently little connection between safety observations recorded on a construction site with mobile devices and the information about the observations available in the 3D/4D building model within the project review software.
Research Question How can construction site safety be improved by recording safety observations on mobile devices and documenting them within a 3D/4D building model?
Sponsor Wish List For improving Safety • Location • 3D Model • 4D Model • Dynamic • Mobile Reporting • Photos • Logistics • Quality/Safety • Cost Control
Picture Linking • Has the ability to link multiple pictures with observations
Location Tracking • Multiple methods were explored • Skyhook
Location Picking • Clickable grid system that marks the area of an instance
Methods • Power Test • How significant is the difference between paper and application? • 80% = Significant • Inside vs. Outside • 30 participants
Testing • Eight Observations • Tasks • Indoor paper • Indoor tablet • Outdoor paper • Outdoor tablet • Record times to test speed
Areas of Research Interviews • Prof. Eric Dietz, Prof. Bryan Hubbard, Sr. Dir. EHPS Carol Shelby, Pepper, Hunt, Haskell, Holder
Research • Decrease accidents with more observation. • Less time on paperwork = more time to manage • More inspectors = safer environment • More technology = more productivity
How we mixed it all together Create a Dynamic UI adjustable by the end company/user From the UI submit to servers From UI generate Reports Link Navisworks to the Database and 3D content
What Industries can benefit? • Logistics • Safety • Quality • Progress • Maintenance • Construction • and more…..
Moving Forward • Better location tracking • Login & Password security • Image Markup • Image Gallery • Weather Automation • Re-purpose for other industries • Create a 2D representation of your location within the floor plan
