A Study on Utilization of Unmanned Aerial Vehicle for Automated Inspection for Building Occupancy Authorization

A Systematic Review of Automated Construction Inspection and Progress Monitoring (ACIPM): Applications, Challenges, and Future Directions

“…The created BIM can be used for occupancy authorization purposes and complements the traditional inspection processes. Their study has been successful in inspecting several elements of a case study building [46].…”

“…The high interest in applying ACIPM in bridge inspection is because of several reasons, such as (a) complexity of bridges, (b) safety and accessibility challenges, (c) larger inspection scale, (d) cost effectiveness of ACIPM, and (e) continuous health monitoring needs of bridges. Façade Inspection 5 [25][26][27][28]38] Crack Inspection 3 [32,37,39] Energy Assessment 1 [44] Falsework Inspection 1 [43] Occupancy Authorization 1 [46] Others (Related to both Domains) 8 [133][134][135][136][137][138][139][140] Total Reviewed 138 Under the building construction inspection domain, progress monitoring is a prevalent area of research. Some reasons for widespread adoption of ACIPM for progress monitoring are (a) time efficiency, (b) labor saving, (c) improved accuracy, (d) enhanced consistency, (e) real-time availability, (f) comprehensive documentation, and (g) safety benefits of using ACIPM in this sub-domain.…”
