Development strategies for unmanned aerial vehicles in the construction industry

Abstract

The paper provides research on the use of modern drones or unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) for effective work in the fields of architectural design, construction management and monitoring. The authors examined the theoretical foundations and practical features of modern unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) or drones. Statistics on the structure of the global UAV market are presented. The detailed description of the primary applications of drones in the construction sector is provided. The main advantages of new technologies over traditional ones are noted. The paper pays attention to the issues of increasing safety at construction sites. The introduction of innovative technologies is necessary for the development of the construction industry. The use of such technologies will reduce task completion times, improve work quality, improve safety standards and reduce costs. At the same time, the authors noted some shortcomings of modern unmanned technologies. In the conclusion of the paper, insights are presented regarding the future possibilities for integrating unmanned aerial vehicles in construction projects.
