Digital realities of the economic horizons in the construction industry

Abstract

This article examines the impact of digital technologies on the development of the construction industry. The author examines what opportunities open up through the use of digital tools, such as Building Information Modeling (BIM), virtual and augmented reality, drones and others. The article provides specific examples of the use of these technologies in construction, as well as describes the advantages and disadvantages of their use. The article shows that digital technologies have great potential to improve productivity and quality in construction, and their use will continue to grow in the coming years. One of the key points highlighted in the article is the role of BIM technologies in modern construction. The author notes that BIM allows you to create accurate digital models of buildings and infrastructure facilities, which simplifies the design, construction and management of facilities. Thanks to BIM technologies, specialists can conduct virtual modelling of objects and check the operability of systems before the start of construction, which reduces the cost of errors and increases the efficiency of the process. The author notes that augmented and virtual reality are also becoming increasingly popular in construction. At the end of the article, the author summarizes the results and gives recommendations so that the construction industry can maximize the potential of digital technologies. The author advises the use of digital technologies not only in design, but also at the stages of construction and management of facilities. The article demonstrates that digital technologies are an important tool for improving productivity, reducing costs and improving the quality of work in construction. Their use will continue to grow in the coming years.
