“ Smart Implementation in the Construction Industry “

IoT in construction comprises the use of internet connected sensors that are used by labors or placed around job sites. IoT in construction helps to collect various types of data about activity, conditions and performances on the construction site and send this details to a central dashboard where data is analyzed to help inform decision. Traditionally, maximum internet connected devices have been mobile phones and computer. So, variety of sensors can now cheaply and easily be upgraded with a chip (like Sim card), hence the term IoT.

IoT in construction-based solutions can support the construction process in many ways. IoT can develop construction implementation planning, by updating the construction tasks, and sequences management while keeping all stakeholders continuously informed. Furthermore, IoT can also escalate the productivity within construction implementation itself. The adoption of IoT in the construction market is expected to increase among end-user to mitigate the risk and reduce the number of accidents in construction sites and eliminate the cost of construction.

IoT in construction industry is improving safe working practices for the construction sites workers. The wearable IoT devices have actual potential for upgrading safety on building sites. If all team on a job site wear a clip-on devices or wrist band, data about their activity and moment can be used to determine any risk behavior.
