1. DRONES IN THE CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY TEJJY INC. BENEFITS, DRAWBACKS, AND FUTURE
2. WHAT ARE DRONES OR UAV? INTRODUCTION Drones or UAVs (Unmanned Aerial Vehicles) are now popular among builders for various construction related activities including drone mapping services, construction progression monitoring, and site inspection. UAV drones are used to capture reality using the image capturing technology by flying in 360 degrees both in horizontal and vertical lines. Data collected using drone surveying helps in making cost saving and time saving decisions promptly. The benefits of drone technology have revolutionized the project lifecycle from the designing to the project operations stage.
3. WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF DRONES IN CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY?
4. FASTER AND ACCURATE LAND SURVEY AND MAPPING Drones can cut down the time used to visualize a site’s topography compared to traditional methods. Drones produce high resolution images that can be converted into 3D models, allowing the construction crew to identify issues and spot scope errors during pre- construction, saving time and money over the long term. 01 PLANNING AND DESIGN Images collected by drone surveying can be used in the design process by architects, and engineers. Using drone orthophotos and 3D models of the site, architects can place the 3D model of the new building design on the site to see its impact. 02 IMPROVED SAFETY FOR WORKERS Drones can survey hazardous areas. Drones give extra safety for those involved in the construction activities of a project. Contractors can use live drone footage on the job site to ensure workers’ safety by confirming the site conditions and reducing exposure to accidents. Drone surveying is also useful during insurance claims, as they are used to provide evidence of construction progress. 03
5. PROGRESSION MONITORING Companies can track what is happening on the site and the progression of the project using drone surveying. Drones can be programmed to monitor the construction progression on site at a fraction of the cost of traditional methods. Drone surveying can be used by the companies on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis to check if the project is happening on the schedule and to make data driven decisions if it is not. 04 SAVE COSTS AND GOOD ROI Mapping a construction site used to be expensive and time consuming. Thanks to drone mapping services. Now we can survey sites in a fraction of time and money compared to traditional methods using drone surveying. The survey done by drone is highly accurate. All of this will provide a good return on investment in using drone surveying in construction even though the initial cost of buying a drone is expensive. 05 CONSTRUCTION SITE INSPECTIONS Drones have the ability to inspect the remote locations of a building or infrastructure which is difficult for physical inspection at low cost with minimum time and persons. Thermal camera sensors can be used for detecting defects and external problems and to resolve the issues as soon as possible. 06
6. IMPROVED SITE SURVEILLANCE Drones can help in identifying trespassers and prevent theft and damage on construction sites. Using a drone for site surveillance is a relatively new method and has its drawbacks. For a drone to be an effective all-round security solution, its battery life must be significantly improved. 07 MARKETING The photographs and videos taken by drones after the completion of the construction of the building can be used for marketing purposes like marketing videos and brochures of the building. 08 AS BUILT 3D BIM MODEL PRODUCTION UAV with the help of 3D laser scanning can be used to produce a point cloud scan of the constructed building or infrastructure. This point cloud scan is then used to create as built 3D BIM model, which can be used for facility management and operations. 09
7. DISADVANTAGES OF USING DRONES IN CONSTRUCTION Drone operation necessitates a high level of expertise. In order to operate a drone on a construction site, at least two professionals are required. Certain weather conditions like rain, hail, heavy wind, or foggy environment can restrict the usage of drones. Purchasing a drone is expensive as it has a large upfront cost. Federal restrictions on using drones because of security issues.
8. FUTURE OF DRONES IN CONSTRUCTION GREEN BUILDING Drones can be equipped with thermal imaging cameras to identify energy loss, which can be used for green building analysis. 01 DELIVERY Drones can be used to deliver small objects to the construction site. 02 REPLACING CRANES Drones now don’t have the capacity to lift materials and do things that a crane can do. But it surely has the potential to do that in the future. 03
9. CONCLUSION Contractors' capacity to complete projects on schedule and under budget is greatly enhanced by the use of drones. Drones increase production and efficiency while also making day-to-day management easier. As long as the restrictions by FAA (Federal Aviation Administration) on construction are eased, the drone is going to be an inevitable part of the AEC industry in the future.
