Abstract

Abstract Effective maintenance management can be extremely difficult owing to various types of equipment and instruments in a construction lab. These equipment and instruments are required to provide a high level of precision and accuracy in their tests. Usually, maintenance staff will make hard copy records of inspections and maintenance results in a construction lab. Consequently, there are often difficulties in accessing information and data re-entry problems during the maintenance process. By using 2D barcode and Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technologies, this study presents a novel system called Mobile 2D Barcode/RFID-based Maintenance Management (M-BRMM) system to improve lab equipment and instrument maintenance management and provides a maintenance information sharing platform. Integrating promising information technologies such as smart phones and RFID-enabled PDAs, the M-BRMM is then applied in a construction lab in Taiwan to verify our proposed methodology and demonstrates improvements to the maintenance process in a construction lab.
