Abstract

Due to harsh conditions of construction site, understanding of current feature of terrain and other infrastructures is critical issue for site managers. However, because of difficulties in acquiring the geographical information of the construction sites such as large sites and limited capability of construction workers, comprehensive site investigation of current feature of construction site is not an easy task for construction managers. To address these circumstances of construction sites, this study deduce difficulties and applicabilities of unmanned aerial vehicle in the area of construction site management. To confirm applicability of UAV in civil construction project, case study have been conducted on the road construction project. The result of case study proved that the developed system is one of promising technologies that has been studied in construction site management. To improve applicability of UAV for construction and process management information, law and technical issues will be an important area of future study.

건설 현장, 특히 토목 분야 시공 프로젝트의 경우 다양한 요인에 따라 프로젝트 진척상황을 파악하고 공사/공정을 모니터링 하는데 어려움이 따른다. 본 연구에서는 건설 프로젝트, 특히 토목 시공 프로젝트의 생애주기 중 주요 과정 중 하나인 공사/공정관리 모니터링 단계에서의 무인비행장치의 활용가능성에 대하여 분석하고 그 방법에 대하여 고찰하고자 한다. 먼저, 본 연구에서 도출한 건설 현장의 특징을 극복하기 위하여 공사/공정관리 모니터링 과정에 대하여 먼저 분석을 수행하고, 현재 드론 기기의 특성에 맞는 활용 방법에 대하여 분석을 수행하였다. 이를 바탕으로 하여 토목 현장 관리를 위한 필수 데이터인 정사영상 및 포인트 클라우드 데이터를 취득하기 위한 시스템을 개발하였으며 시스템 적용가능성에 대한 분석을 수행하였다. 대표적인 토목 현장인 도로 프로젝트를 대상으로 테스트베드를 수행하여 무인비행장치의 현장 활용가능성에 대한 검토 역시 진행하였다. 테스트 베드 수행 결과 개발된 시스템의 건설 현장 관리 적용 가능성 및 실용성을 확인할 수 있었다. 향후 연구에서는 무인비행장치를 활용하여 취득하고 분석한 데이터가 실질적으로 시공/공정 관리 정보로서 활용될 수 있도록 기반을 마련될 수 있도록 제도적, 기술적 보완을 위한 연구가 요구된다.
