Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of construction management technology, specifically to an intelligent management system and method for construction. Background Technology
[0002] Construction management is the overall coordination of a project throughout its entire lifecycle, encompassing four core aspects: schedule, quality, safety, and cost. It involves scientifically planning the construction process, utilizing BIM technology to optimize resource allocation, ensuring on-time project progress, strictly enforcing quality acceptance standards, strengthening material and process control to guarantee structural safety and functionality, implementing three-level safety training and on-site inspections to prevent risks such as falls from heights and mechanical injuries, and dynamically monitoring cost expenditures to reduce waste through meticulous accounting. The management team must coordinate collaboration among design, supervision, and subcontracting parties, utilizing information technology tools to achieve real-time data sharing and promptly resolve technical changes and unforeseen issues. The goal is to complete the construction task efficiently, safely, and economically, maximizing the project's overall benefits.
[0003] To ensure a safe environment during construction, it is necessary to issue early warnings for the operation of large equipment based on weather conditions. For example, whether tower cranes and material hoists need to be shut down in windy weather, and whether hydraulic equipment needs to be shut down in low-temperature weather to avoid affecting the performance of hydraulic oil. Traditionally, this is achieved by specifying construction specifications. However, construction sites are large, and when personnel do not follow the standards, it is difficult for managers to judge the operating status of each piece of equipment, which can easily lead to inadequate management. We propose an intelligent management system and method for building construction. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide an intelligent management system and method for building construction, which solves the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: an intelligent management system and method for building construction, comprising a weather forecasting system, a data acquisition module, a data processing system, an early warning analysis module, a weather monitoring module, a central processing unit, an equipment monitoring module, a comparison and analysis module, an equipment operation judgment module, an instruction issuing module, and a receiving terminal;
[0006] The receiving terminal includes a device controller and an announcement module, and the announcement module includes a display terminal and a voice broadcast terminal.

[0008] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the device monitoring module includes a power meter for detecting the device's operating power, an external camera installed outside the device to capture the overall operating status of the device, and a built-in camera installed inside the device control room.
[0009] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the early warning analysis module has a built-in database of weather shutdown thresholds for different large-scale construction equipment.
[0010] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the display terminal of the announcement module is an LED display screen, and the voice broadcast terminal is a high-volume speaker.
[0011] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the following steps are included:
[0012] Step 1: The weather forecast system obtains future weather forecast information for the area where the construction site is located;
[0013] Step 2: The data acquisition module collects meteorological forecast data from the weather forecast system and real-time meteorological data from the weather monitoring module;
[0014] Step 3: The data processing system processes the collected meteorological data;
[0015] Step 4: The early warning analysis module compares the processed meteorological data with the built-in equipment weather shutdown thresholds to determine whether a shutdown command needs to be issued to the corresponding equipment, and transmits the judgment result to the central processing unit.
[0016] Step 5: The central processing unit receives the judgment result and simultaneously receives the equipment operation status data collected by the equipment monitoring module. After the comparison and analysis module compares the data with the equipment shutdown feature data built into the equipment operation judgment module, if it is determined that shutdown is required and the equipment is not in a shutdown state, a shutdown command is sent to the receiving terminal through the command issuing module.

[0019] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the equipment monitoring module detects the operating power of the equipment through a power meter, captures the overall operating image of the equipment through an external camera, and captures the internal situation of the equipment control room through a built-in camera. The comparison and analysis module compares the equipment operating status data with the preset power range, equipment appearance status, and control room status data of the equipment shutdown state built into the equipment operation judgment module.
[0020] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:
[0021] 1. This invention combines a weather forecasting system with an on-site weather monitoring module to achieve intelligent early warning and forced shutdown management of large construction equipment based on weather changes.

[0028] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this invention easier to understand, the invention will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.
[0029] Please see Figure 1-3 This invention discloses an intelligent management system and method for building construction, which aims to solve the problem of inadequate safety management of large equipment due to weather changes in traditional building construction, realize intelligent early warning and forced shutdown management of equipment, and ensure construction safety.
[0030] The system includes a weather forecasting system, a data acquisition module, a data processing system, an early warning and analysis module, a weather monitoring module, a central processing unit, an equipment monitoring module, a comparison and analysis module, an equipment operation judgment module, an instruction issuing module, and a receiving terminal; among which, the receiving terminal further includes an equipment controller and an announcement module, and the announcement module includes a display terminal and a voice broadcast terminal.
[0031] The weather forecasting system is used to obtain future weather forecast information for the area where the construction site is located, including meteorological types that may affect the safe operation of large construction equipment, such as wind, low temperature, and heavy rain, as well as corresponding meteorological parameters such as wind speed and temperature. The data acquisition module is connected to the weather forecasting system to collect the meteorological forecast data output by the system. The weather monitoring module is installed within the construction site and consists of an anemometer and thermometer. The anemometer monitors the wind speed and direction at the construction site in real time, and the thermometer monitors the temperature at the construction site in real time. By combining real-time data with forecast data, the accuracy of weather warnings can be significantly improved.
[0032] The data acquisition module transmits all collected data to the data processing system. This system performs format standardization and noise filtering to ensure the data is effectively recognized and processed by subsequent modules. The processed data is then transmitted to the early warning analysis module. This module contains a database of weather-based shutdown thresholds for different types of large construction equipment. For example, tower cranes are pre-set to shut down when wind speeds exceed level 8, while hydraulic equipment is pre-set to shut down when temperatures drop below -5°C to prevent damage to the hydraulic fluid. The early warning analysis module then compares the processed meteorological data with the corresponding shutdown thresholds to determine whether a shutdown command needs to be issued to the relevant equipment, and transmits the analysis results to the central processing unit.
[0033] The central processing unit in this application serves as the core control unit of the entire system. On the one hand, it receives the shutdown judgment result from the early warning analysis module, and on the other hand, it receives real-time meteorological data transmitted by the weather monitoring module for auxiliary verification to ensure the accuracy of the judgment. At the same time, the central processing unit also interacts with the equipment monitoring module, the comparison analysis module, and the equipment operation judgment module.
[0034] The equipment monitoring module is used to monitor the actual operating status of construction equipment. It includes a power meter to detect the equipment's operating power, an external camera installed outside the equipment to capture its overall operating status, and a built-in camera installed inside the equipment control room to assess the operation of personnel in the control room. The power meter detects the equipment's operating power in real time, the external camera captures real-time footage of the equipment's overall operation, such as whether the tower crane boom is rotating or whether the hydraulic cylinders are moving, and the built-in camera captures real-time footage of whether personnel are operating the equipment or the status of equipment control switches inside the control room.
[0035] The equipment monitoring module transmits the collected power data and image data to the comparison and analysis module. The equipment operation judgment module contains preset characteristic data for each device in the shutdown state, such as the power range, appearance, and control room status when the device is shut down. The comparison and analysis module compares the data collected in real time by the equipment monitoring module with the preset shutdown characteristic data of the equipment operation judgment module to determine whether the device is in the actual shutdown state that should be shut down, and transmits the comparison results to the central processing unit.
[0036] When the central processing unit determines that equipment needs to be shut down based on the results of the early warning analysis module, and the comparison analysis module confirms that the equipment has not shut down as required, it will issue a shutdown command to the receiving terminal through the command issuing module. Upon receiving the shutdown command, the equipment controller at the receiving terminal will forcibly shut down the corresponding construction equipment and issue a warning. Simultaneously, the receiving terminal's announcement module will issue a shutdown announcement through a display terminal and a voice broadcast terminal. The display terminal uses an LED screen, placed in a prominent location on the construction site, displaying information such as "Due to strong winds, the tower crane must be shut down immediately." The voice broadcast terminal uses a high-volume loudspeaker to continuously broadcast the shutdown reminder, ensuring that personnel on the construction site are promptly informed.
[0037] Example 1
[0038] During windy weather, the weather forecast system obtains information in advance that strong winds will occur within the next 4 hours, with the maximum wind speed predicted to exceed level 9. The data acquisition module first collects this weather forecast data and transmits it to the data processing system for processing. At the same time, the anemometers of the weather monitoring module set up at the construction site monitor the wind speed in real time. When the real-time wind speed reaches level 8, this real-time data is collected by the data acquisition module and transmitted to the data processing system. After processing the weather forecast data and real-time monitoring data, the data processing system transmits them to the early warning analysis module. The early warning analysis module determines that a shutdown command needs to be issued to the tower crane and transmits the result to the central processing unit.
[0039] After receiving the shutdown judgment result, the central processing unit sends a monitoring command to the equipment monitoring module. The power meter of the equipment monitoring module begins to detect the tower crane's operating power, the external camera begins to record the overall operation of the tower crane, and the internal camera begins to record the interior of the tower crane control room. The equipment monitoring module transmits the collected power data and image data to the comparison and analysis module in real time. The comparison and analysis module calls the preset data of the tower crane's shutdown status in the equipment operation judgment module, ensuring that the boom is stationary, the control room is unoccupied, and the control switch is in the off position. It then compares the real-time collected data with the preset data. If the comparison finds that the tower crane's power is still at a high value, the external camera shows that the boom is rotating, or the internal camera shows that personnel are operating in the control room, then it is determined that the tower crane has not stopped as required.
[0040] The comparison and analysis module transmits the non-shutdown result to the central processing unit (CPU). The CPU then sends a shutdown command to the receiving terminal via the command issuing module. Upon receiving the command, the equipment controller at the receiving terminal forcibly cuts off the tower crane's power supply, causing it to stop. Simultaneously, the display terminal of the announcement module displays "The tower crane needs to be stopped immediately due to strong winds. Do not approach," and the voice broadcast terminal repeatedly broadcasts this message. Afterward, the equipment monitoring module monitors the tower crane again, and the comparison and analysis module performs another comparison until it is confirmed that the tower crane's power is within the range required for shutdown, the boom is stationary, and the control room meets the shutdown requirements. Only then does the CPU stop issuing shutdown commands, completing the entire tower crane shutdown management process under strong winds.
[0041] Example 2
[0042] In cold weather, the weather forecast system predicts that low temperatures will occur within the next 6 hours, with a predicted minimum temperature below -5℃. The data acquisition module collects this weather forecast data and transmits it to the data processing system. Simultaneously, the thermometer in the weather monitoring module monitors the ambient temperature in real time. When the real-time temperature drops to -5℃, this real-time data is collected and transmitted to the data processing system. The data processing system processes the data and then transmits it to the early warning analysis module. The early warning analysis module determines that a shutdown command needs to be issued to the hydraulic equipment and transmits the result to the central processing unit.
[0043] The central processing unit sends monitoring commands to the equipment monitoring module. The power meter of the equipment monitoring module detects the working power of the hydraulic equipment, and an external camera captures images of whether the cylinders, pumps, and other components of the hydraulic equipment are moving. An internal camera captures images of the internal operation of the hydraulic control room. The equipment monitoring module transmits the collected data to the comparison and analysis module. The comparison and analysis module calls the preset data of the hydraulic equipment shutdown status in the equipment operation judgment module, assuming no movement of the cylinders and pumps, no one in the control room, and the control switches are off, and compares the data. If it finds that the power of the hydraulic equipment is still high, the external camera captures movement of the cylinders, or the internal camera captures operation in the control room, then it is determined that the hydraulic equipment has not stopped.
[0044] The central processing unit sends a shutdown command to the receiving terminal through the instruction issuing module. The equipment controller forcibly shuts down the hydraulic equipment. The display terminal of the announcement module displays "The hydraulic equipment needs to be shut down due to low temperature to avoid damage to the hydraulic oil performance." The voice broadcast terminal repeats this prompt in a loop. Then, the equipment monitoring module continues to monitor until it confirms that the hydraulic equipment meets the shutdown condition, thus completing the shutdown management of the hydraulic equipment under low temperature weather.
