BIM, virtual\/augmented reality and IoT (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/bim-news\/iot-construction-sites\/62160\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Internet of Things<\/a>) are now common terms within the industry\u2019s vocabulary, with some if not all construction sectors now using at least one of these technologies in their daily operations.<\/p>\n<p>For the scaffold and temporary access sector, technology is reinventing the wheel, with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/category\/bim-news\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">BIM<\/a> in particular enabling clients to interact with impressive 3D models of intricate designs.<\/p>\n<h3>Simple designs for complex structures<\/h3>\n<p>BIM is giving a project\u2019s entire supply chain improved visibility when it comes to planning, designing and managing built assets. From enabling architects to design-out risk to providing contractors with the capability to digitise construction sites, this intelligent 3D model is optimising work processes and collaboration in a notoriously disjointed industry. Not only is it bringing the construction industry into the modern age, BIM is also improving the levels of safety in which buildings are made and maintained. In a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/bim-news\/digital-twins-high-rise\/76761\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">post-Grenfell society<\/a>, we all know how essential its presence is.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-80003 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Tank-1-300x169.png\" alt=\"temporary access,\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Tank-1-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Tank-1-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Tank-1-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Tank-1-696x392.png 696w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Tank-1-1068x601.png 1068w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Tank-1-747x420.png 747w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Tank-1.png 1920w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Tank-1-610x343.png 610w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>For the scaffold and temporary access industry, BIM is enabling internal and external design engineers to produce simple 3D scaffolding blueprints for complex structures. Unlike 2D CAD drawings, 3D modelling produces detailed designs in far less time and with more reliability.<\/p>\n<p>Designers can reap these benefits with the tools such as the HAKI Design Tool and HAKI BIM; two solutions in which the former enables designers to configure scaffolding designs on a cloud-based platform \u2013 Inventor iLogic and Configurator 360 from Autodesk \u2013 and the latter advances this configuration on to Revit for greater customisation and capability, particularly when it comes to interacting with the components within the 3D model.<\/p>\n<p>As BIM progresses, the scaffold and temporary access industry will see the wider adoption of 4D, 5D and 6D iterations. HAKI is currently engaging in 6D BIM on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/planning-construction-news\/hinkley-point-c-concrete\/59173\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Hinkley Point C<\/a> (HPC), the UK\u2019s newest nuclear power site. This version is processing live connections to the sites to inform decision-making. Each week a site is scanned for updates, where this data is assimilated and then disseminated to the project\u2019s supply chain, meaning weekly progressions can be viewed. With 6D BIM, the HPC project\u2019s supply chain has full visibility of a project, which is currently the largest construction site in Europe.<\/p>\n<h3>Visualising the future<\/h3>\n<p>On construction projects, virtual or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/planning-construction-news\/virtual-reality-future\/52133\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">augmented reality<\/a> (VR\/AR) gives a clear visualisation of how a project will function in real-life. A project\u2019s 3D BIM model is loaded on to the AR software to give full visibility of the components. Users can then interact and walk through the \u2018project world\u2019 to review the work prior to construction. This process adds another crucial layer to scaffold projects, enabling designs to be viewed and interrogated before moving to the next stage of development.<\/p>\n<p>HAKI has developed a version of such software named HAKI Playground, which allows users to walk around the project directly onscreen. This can be used on any device including a PC, tablet, smartphone, Xbox and PlayStation.<\/p>\n<p>After a project has been completed in Revit or HAKI BIM, it can be exported to the gaming platform Unity. An avatar lets the user walk around the project as if it was in the real world. The user can, for instance, see the detail of a scaffolding beam and analyse its compatibility with fellow materials, enabling money to be saved and risk to be mitigated on projects. To provide even greater accessibility, the HAKI app is making use of smartphone technology to enable its customers to view products in AR, in order to find information quickly.<\/p>\n<p>As well as being suitable for a number of devices, HAKI Playground negates the need for any headsets with glasses \u2013 a real bonus for those constantly moving around a project. The application also allows a number of stakeholders in the supply chain to experience the solution in VR at any one time and is not restrictive to one person, unlike most other applications. This is particularly beneficial for group environments and collaborative or collective feedback.<\/p>\n<h3>Keeping connected onsite<\/h3>\n<p>The Internet of Things basically encompasses every and any object that uses the internet to connect with another \u2018thing\u2019. Smartphones, Fitbits, Amazon Echo, each household has at least one of these objects (which are in constant dialogue with another). For the construction industry, the IoT has radically changed the way projects are managed and built; there are apps for project management, deliveries, timesheets etc. IoT is essentially allowing important decisions to be made anytime, anywhere, freeing up site-workers from the shackles of their office computers so work can be performed in any location with decent Wi-Fi.<\/p>\n<p>IoT is of particular value on temporary access projects on offshore oil rigs, or any programme of works that are located in hard-to-reach places. Having a device which can keep these sites connected with external supply chains is crucial, especially when it comes to deliveries and any other urgent matters.<\/p>\n<p>BIM, AR and IoT technologies are just a few of the innovations that are streamlining programmes of temporary access works across the globe. Preventing risk, improving project delivery and offering real value, it won\u2019t be long before technology is completely indispensable to the sector.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Mattias Kuduk<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>VDC and innovation manager<\/p>\n<p>HAKI<\/p>\n<p>+44 (0)1827 282 525<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"mailto:info@HAKI.co.uk\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">info@HAKI.co.uk<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.haki.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">www.haki.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Twitter: <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/HAKIscaffolding\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">@HAKIscaffolding<\/a><\/p>\n<p>LinkedIn: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/company\/haki-scaffolding-group\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">HAKI Scaffolding<\/a><\/p>\n<p>YouTube: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/user\/HAKIScaffolding\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">HAKI Scaffolding<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class=\"mk-custom-module-container\">\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mattias Kuduk, VDC and innovation manager at global temporary access provider HAKI, discusses the technologies that are having a positive impact on a sector where safety, quality and performance are high demands on a project\u2019s agenda.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":16,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[305,141293],"tags":[428,594,676,464,574,688,432,172719,61643,753],"stakeholder_rel_tag":[],"contributor_rel_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-80002","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-bim-news","7":"category-digital-construction-news","8":"tag-bim","9":"tag-building-design","10":"tag-construction","11":"tag-contributor-profile","12":"tag-data-management","13":"tag-digital-construction","14":"tag-health-safety","15":"tag-internet-of-things","16":"tag-pbc-today-august-2020","17":"tag-safety"},"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.9 (Yoast SEO v26.9) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Scaffolding: Reaching greater heights with technology<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Mattias Kuduk at HAKI, discusses the technologies that are having a positive impact on the temporary access sector where safety and quality are high demands\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/digital-construction-news\/bim-news\/scaffolding-technology\/80002\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Scaffolding: Reaching greater heights with technology\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Mattias Kuduk, VDC and innovation manager at global temporary access provider HAKI, discusses the technologies that are having a positive impact on a sector where safety, quality and performance are high demands on a project\u2019s agenda\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/digital-construction-news\/bim-news\/scaffolding-technology\/80002\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Planning, Building &amp;

When she\u2019s not working hard on cranking out first-class content for our online viewers to enjoy, she\u2019s keeping our social media lively and up to date\u2026 you could call her a social media guru? We\u2019re sure she\u2019d like that. With a BA in English and Journalism, Steph isn\u2019t fazed by attention to detail; on the contrary, she enjoys getting her teeth into a good article. In her downtime Steph loves nothing more than getting together with friends to enjoy a few (several) gin and tonics. Think you\u2019ve got some content Steph would be interested in?
