  1. Technology Impact on Construction Industry Presented by: Mansour Al-Zahrani

  2. Outline: • Introduction. • Technology impact on Construction. • Information and Communication Technology Impact . • Direction of Future Technology. • Benefits of Technology • Conclusion.

  3. Introduction: • A lot of information, equipment, materials and work in construction • A lot of risks and difficulties in construction. • A lot of meetings, data and communications in construction.

  4. Technology Impact on Construction: • 3D/4D Technology. • Sensing Technology. • Computer programs.

  5. 3D/4D Model Application : • Photorealistic Rendering. • Virtual Design Review • Analyzing Design Options/Building Operations • Cost Estimating • Analyzing Construction Operations • Construction Document Production • Bid Package Preparation

  6. Application of sensing technology: • Safety • injury and illness in construction industries 5 times the all-industry average. • 1200 deaths and 460000 disabling injuries per year. • Annual cost of construction injuries is over 15 billion $.

  7. Sensor Technology: • Radio Frequency Technology • alerts the worker by recognizing and detecting hazards environment. • Ultra Wideband (UWB) • advanced technology • More accurate

  8. Computer Program: • DSS (Decision Support System) • enhance the project administration. • construction conflict resolution under uncertainty. • Help in deciding • the negotiation strategy • course of action

  9. I&C Technology impact: • A lot of information that transfer between the project parties. • Good communication- successful project. • Bad communication – Fail project.

  10. I&C Technology impact: • Construction Negotiation Online CoNegO • Smartsettle software technology • improve the speed of communication

  11. I&C Technology impact: • Advantages of negotiation Online • Enhance efficiency of negotiation preparation • Computing facilitates of CoNegO • Flexible time and management

  12. I&C Technology impact: • Difficulties • Adjustment and adapt the senior employees with this technology • efficient way of using the technology • duplication between paper work and technology work follow

  13. Direction of Future Technology • The technology has not limit to stop • Nanotechnology • Nanotechnology is a way that deals with understanding, mentoring, controlling and manipulating matter at very small level of individual and molecules in the range of 0.1 to 100 nanometer (10 exp -9), creating materials, devices and systems, with new properties and functions

  14. Direction of Future Technology • Nanotechnology future impact • generating initiative and innovation that develop • construction material • structural health monitoring of civil infrastructure • design of intelligent structures

  15. Benefits of Technology • Increasing the Productivity • Saving Cost • Saving Time • Improve the quality

  16. Conclusion: • latest existing technologies that are useful for project construction and administration . • Technology plays important role to enhance the safety environment in the work place. • The computer program can play important role to reduce the claims and disputes. • Defining the nanotechnology and show it’s advantages.
