dc.descriptionMany construction companies consider the measurement of work in progress to be one of the most challenging problems faced by project management [1]. In construction projects, site managers normally spend a significant amount of time measuring, recording and analysing the progress of work.
dc.description.abstractThe accurate and up to date measurement of work in progress on construction sites is vital for project management functions like schedule and cost control. Currently, it takes place using traditional building surveying techniques and visual inspections. The usually monthly measurements are error prone and not frequent enough for reliable and effective project controls. This paper explores the potential of using computer vision technology in assisting the project management task. In particular, it examines the development of an integrated building information system that aims to determine the progress of construction from digital images captured on site in order to semi-automate the work in progress measurement and calculation of interim payments as well as function as an early warning system of potential delays. The study focuses on the quantity rather than quality aspect of work and is limited to the superstructure of buildings. Keywords: Measurement, Construction Process, Automation
