Digital Twin Enabled Construction Progress Monitoring

Abstract: Digital Twin technology has revolutionized overseeing newly built structures. This study proposes employing digital twin-based automatic progress monitoring on construction sites, comparing 3D point clouds with Building Information Modeling to track progress and predict completion. It highlights integrating semi-continuous monitoring with a building’s digital twin for efficient construction management. Leveraging precise data, it enhances understanding and identifies schedule deviations, enabling timely actions. Demonstrated through real-world construction data, visualized Gantt charts showcase its efficacy, offering insights into task status and projected completion dates. This underscores digital twin technology’s potential to transform construction oversight.
