Application of Blockchain in Construction Inspection Activities

Abstract

Construction management is a complex and time-consuming process, and effective quality management is mandatory to ensure overall project quality. Unfortunately, current methods are cumbersome and rife with error. Therefore, the application of electronic and blockchain-based technology for autonomous inspection operations is proposed, and its advantages to auxiliary management operations are demonstrated. The application of blockchain technology in the construction industry using appropriate electronic aids can improve operational efficiency over traditional paper-based methods, thus reducing the time required by engineers and improving quality management.
