Onsite Monitoring and Progress Reporting

Construction projects are complex, unstructured and dynamic. So accurate project progress monitoring has always been an essential part of the project control plan and one of the main challenges for project managers. In fact in order to deliver projects on time and within budget, progress monitoring can be taken in to account as a critical success factor. In the current practices, project progress monitoring is performed manually which is time consuming, expensive and error prone. In this research project near real-time site data acquisition and construction progress monitoring on daily basis are performed using novel technologies and algorithms respectively. Moreover construction industry sectors are suffering from poor material management processes, however materials and installed equipment can make up 50– 60% of the total project cost and impact 80% of its schedule. So accurate project progress measurement through developed method can improve materials management as well.
