Information Economy and Construction
• High patterns of interactivity
and engagement with content
• Decentralised and dispersed
information
• High mobility
• Few overall centralized nodes,
though semi-central ones are
connected with different
building sites
• High presence of parties
outside the organization at
each building site

Innovation at Crossrail
“In delivering London’s new East to West railway, we
hope to raise the bar in the construction industry, now and
for future projects. To achieve that, we need to think
differently about how we share ideas and implement
them.”

Objective
• Understand potential of Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE)
Beacons to pinpoint user on a floor plan and map out
exclusion zones
Project Example: Bluetooth Beacons
Benefits
• Supports H&S compliance to
exclusion zone protocol
• Future potential for context
sensitive data to be pushed to
operatives
Objective:
• Develop and trial a mobile
application that layers
environmental data onto BIM
model
Project Example: Environmental Layer
Benefits:
• Access to near real-time noise, vibration and pollution
monitoring on site
• Providing environmental information to help inform
decision making
Project Example: In-Site - A Smart AR
Solution for Construction
Objectives
• Explore the use of AR devices to provide contextually specific
asset information
• Display data augmented on top of an asset and push back data
captured on site
Benefits
• Improved access to mobile
information
• Hands-free interaction with
relevant data
Conclusions
• Set the tone for mobility
requirements
• Beginning break down
barriers associated with
the decentralisation of
information
• Work with SME’s to
support agility
• Trial new technology to
leave a legacy for future
projects

Editor's Notes

  1. 40 stations running from Reading in the west, to Shenfield and Abbey Wood in the east. Through 42 km of tunnels already constructed under central London. (the pink on the map indicates new tunnel, the blue is upgraded railway and stations)
  2. Why Innovate18? Funding enabling POCs Support top down, innovation enabled and empowered bottom up
  3. At project initiation – works will start soon
  4. HS2 – Planning Crossrail2 - Consultation
  5. Let’s start with the analogue… very analogue. Strange how a simple piece of paper can give you intricate knowledge of a place you have never visited before.
  6. The move to digital and the incorporation of GPS. Maps have suddenly become contextually relevant. Coupled with smart phones and you have on-demand, contextually relevant geospatial information at your fingertips. But the information being pulled in is still largely static and is always out of date. Effectively we have just digitised maps and aligned it to your current location.
  7. A living breathing city is always changing. Only when we can tap into real-time information will the Smart City emerge.
  8. Real-time Microclimate analysis (drones) Real-time traffic monitoring routing for autonomous vehicles Real-time
  9. Man vs. Machine generated data
  10. In recent years there has been 3 technological ears of disruption. In the first era we focused on documentation and efficiency which encompasses our AutoCAD® platform and collaboration via DWG in the 80’s and 90’s. And then Building Information Modeling was introduced which has enabled customers to better understand and optimize projects on one platform. And now we are entering the next era. One of connection bringing cloud, social and mobile technology to bear by considering a range of dynamic external factors – environmental, economic, even social. This Era of Connection is the natural evolution of Autodesk’s work to deliver disruptive innovation to customers. This is about technology interconnection with Project Delivery. This is well-positioned to become the next generation of BIM.
  11. Because of disruptive technology, buildings and infrastructure assets are changing. Physical things are connecting to each other, becoming deeply interconnected systems. For example, thermostats now learn occupant behaviors and offers better environmental control and energy efficiency. This data-driven insight about how we use space is scaling up to environments like the Midfield Airport Terminal building in Abu Dhabi which uses a sophisticated technology for innovative baggage handling, duty-free item sales, and efficient processing of passengers. It is opening the door to new ways of adding value to buildings and infrastructure, and better aligning supply with demand across many dimensions – occupancy levels, energy performance, water usage, passenger journeys, refinery throughput and more… But move beyond the individual asset and seize the opportunity that this will support in building new relationships with your clients based on “outcomes” rather than price or even value. We will see the bigger impact of each decision we make – in design, in construction, in operations and in occupation.
  12. Construction is the most dangerous land-based work sector in Europe, after the fishing industry. In the European Union, the fatal accident rate is nearly 13 workers per 100,000 as against 5 per 100,000 for the all sector average The problem is not that the hazards and risks are unknown, it is that they are very difficult to control in a constantly changing work environment. The leading safety hazards on site are falls from height, motor vehicle crashes, excavation accidents, electrocution, machines, and being struck by falling objects
