Solution Overview

Problem

The construction industry faces challenges in efficiently managing human resources and preventing faulty construction and untrustworthy maintenance, leading to increased costs, safety accidents, and decreased productivity due to lack of transparency and malicious behavior.

Innovation Solution

A video-based integrated building construction and maintenance management method where construction and maintenance processes are documented as videos and registered on a building management server, allowing for transparent management by checking compliance with guidelines and evaluating worker performance, with features like 3D virtual space coordination for resource information matching and evaluation scoring.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If construction and maintenance processes are managed through traditional manual reporting and supervision methods, then management operations are simple and easy to operate, but transparency is lost and faulty construction or untrustworthy maintenance cannot be prevented

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetransparency of construction and maintenance processesVSAvoidcomplexity of management system
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent creates video copies of construction and maintenance processes to store in a database. These video copies serve as transparent records that can be reviewed to verify process compliance, replacing the need for complex manual supervision systems while ensuring reliability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying

Solution Approach 2:

The patent replaces manual reporting and physical supervision mechanisms with an automated video-based management system. Video cameras automatically capture processes, and the system automatically stores and manages these records, eliminating the need for complex human supervision chains.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #28Mechanics substitution (Replace mechanical system)

2Productivity

If the number of field managers is increased to improve control and management of workers, then human resource management improves, but management costs increase and productivity decreases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveefficiency of human resource managementVSAvoidnumber of managers required
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSQuantity of substance

Solution Approach 1:

The video-based management system enables self-service monitoring where the system automatically captures, stores, and makes available video records of construction and maintenance processes. This eliminates the need for continuous human supervision while maintaining effective control over worker activities.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The system provides automatic feedback through video records that document worker activities and process compliance. Managers can review these records to assess performance and ensure compliance without needing to be physically present, creating an efficient feedback loop that reduces the need for numerous supervisors.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

3Manufacturing precision

If real-time checking of construction materials and processes is implemented, then quality control improves and faulty construction is prevented, but system complexity and implementation costs increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvequality of construction materials and processesVSAvoidcomplexity of real-time monitoring system
Core Design Contradiction:
Manufacturing precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system creates video copies of construction processes and material handling activities. These video records serve as verification documents that can be reviewed to ensure material quality and process compliance, providing manufacturing precision without requiring complex real-time intervention systems.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying

AI summary

The present invention relates to a video-based integrated building construction and maintenance management method in which a series of processes of building construction and maintenance after the completion of the construction is produced as a video and registered in a building management server, and this video is configured to be checked by a building owner or resident so that a building can be transparently managed by fundamentally preventing faulty construction that may occur during a construction step and untrustworthy maintenance, and thus a sense of trust may be given to the building owner or resident.
