NEW TECHNOLOGIES IN CONSTRUCTION THAT WILL CHANGE THE INDUSTRY VERY SOON
The need for changes is dictated not only by the needs of customers who want fast and convenient service, as well as easy access to information, but also by global market changes: increased competition, tightening of legislative regulation.
We tell you what technologies will change the market of new buildings in the coming years.
BIM technologies
BIM-technologies in construction (Building Information Modeling) is an information modeling of the life cycles of an object, built on the basis of complex processing of data on architectural, design, technological, economic and other information about a building with all relationships and dependencies.
The main feature of the technology is that the building object is considered as a whole: changing one parameter entails automatic changes in the elements and objects associated with it, including drawings, visualization, specifications and implementation schedule.
It should be noted that BIM modeling is already mandatory for the implementation of state orders, and from 2022 this requirement will affect all contracts of companies with state participation. The Ministry of Construction also does not exclude that it will oblige private developers to create digital copies of objects from July 2020.
The use of modeling technology in the implementation of residential projects, first of all, will help the developers themselves to increase efficiency and save money - the design time will be reduced, time spent on coordination and development of documentation.
A digital copy of an object can also be successfully used in the implementation of related social and infrastructure projects, as well as help integrate such ecosystems as a "smart city".
IoT technologies and building control
One of the main steps towards optimizing construction processes and increasing efficiency will be the introduction of IoT technologies - the Internet of things.
The Internet of Things is the concept of a computer network of physical objects equipped with embedded technologies for interacting with each other or with the external environment, which allows them to collect, analyze and transfer data between themselves using software and technical devices.
A similar technology in the construction industry is devices and sensors combined within a single platform that monitor and analyze all construction processes in real time. This approach allows to reduce not only the terms of work and their labor intensity, but also their cost.
Special attention will be paid to control. Already, large companies are using drones, GPS devices and all kinds of scanners in order to comply with plans, the speed of construction of houses and the corresponding quality. End-to-end analytics will also affect the physical work of personnel on the construction site. tokenization in real estate
Additionally, the direction of cost engineering is being developed, which allows you to get a resource estimate for a project by loading an existing BIM model into a special program.
"Smart home" and "smart city"
If a “smart home” allows residents to manage their apartment systems from a smartphone or tablet, then a “smart city” covers the creation of an optimal ecosystem on the scale of a block, microdistrict, district or even a city.
"Smart House"
Now the mass construction of houses with "smart" apartments has not yet begun, but in the next few years it will be almost impossible to imagine housing without such a function. Residents of a "smart home" can easily manage all the systems of their apartments (from setting the microclimate to lighting), communicate with the management company, track charges, pay utility bills, and much more.
From the point of view of developers, the introduction of such technologies is a competitive advantage.
Smart city"
At the same time, the Smart City project is a government initiative aimed at increasing the competitiveness of Russian cities, creating an effective urban management system, and creating safe and comfortable living conditions for citizens. Its implementation is carried out within the framework of the national project "Housing and Urban Environment" and the national program "Digital Economy".
"Smart City" is the introduction of advanced digital and engineering solutions to urban and municipal infrastructure. The project involves the dissemination of technologies that will be used not only by municipal services and city authorities, but also by developers.
