Building the versatile Degital Twin Platform in the phase of Construction -Development of CPS construction management system-

Abstract

In the construction industry, as a countermeasure to the shortage of workers and long working hours, we are promoting DX (digital transformation) of construction to improve productivity and reform work styles. DX is realized not only by digitizing on-site information, but also by making advanced use of that data, supporting decision-making, and simplifying our workflow. We considered that there is a "digital twin" of the construction site as one of the best solutions for realizing DX and developed a new system that we called "CPS construction management system" including a 3D viewer application. This paper introduces several use cases of the digital twins, describes the functions of the "CPS construction management system" for improving the efficiency of construction management work, and discusses future visions based on that system.
