ABSTRACT
Timely and accurate construction progress tracking is significant to the nowadays construction industry, considering that construction productivity has dropped by almost 20% over the past 50 years. Ultra-Wideband (UWB), as a kind of high precision, stable and real-time indoor positioning technology, provides the supports to the proposed automated construction progress management system. More importantly, it is necessary for the construction progress management to have the forward flow of design intent and feedback flow of real construction state information, in this way, the efficient and effective construction progress management could be realized. The proposed system is introduced in detail in this research, and it demonstrates the theoretical feasibility with six requirements but needs further verification by practical cases in the future.
