Description

DESCRIPTION
ANALYSIS METHOD Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to an analysis method suitable for use in construction and contracting sector and executable on a data processing device such as a computer, a smart phone and a tablet.
Prior Art
In construction and contracting sector, an effective planning and risk monitoring must be performed both in the project and preparation & tendering processes. In other words, if the physical conditions of the region where the project is to be implemented are not evaluated properly, then various work accidents may happen or the duration of the work or process to be carried out in that region may take longer time than planned. Additionally, all the planning and risk monitoring both in the project and tendering process can be performed on the basis of the capacity of human's brain, which results in insufficient evaluation of the theoretical or practical data of previous years. In other words, a project analysis comprising planning and risk monitoring is restricted to the experiences of the project engineers. This is, therefore, not sufficient for project auditing and project profits.
Moreover, any injury, loss of limb, death, machinery and equipment damages resulting from the work accidents and associated time and work losses cause a significant cost of inferior quality. In other words, in the event a proper planning and risk monitoring is not made, the quality of the project would be decreased due to possible work accidents, thereby resulting in an unexpected cost increase. Furthermore, in case of an improper planning, errors may be made in the performance of the work, which requires, in turn, the same work to be carried out for the second time. Accordingly, the duration of the project is extended and the cost of the project is increased. Furthermore, during the performance of the project, it is likely that the details of the works to be undertaken within the scope of the project are not subjected to a reassessment, resulting in errors in the work and thus re- performance of the erroneous work. Such deficiencies in planning, performance and risk monitoring decrease the quality of the project, thereby leading to an unexpected scale of increase in the cost of the project.
To this end, several analysis methods are used for projects to be implemented in construction and contracting sector, for which analysis methods there is a need, especially, in determining the cost and duration of the project in an effective manner. Moreover, these analysis methods have an active role both in prediction of possible risks and finding the necessary precautions and solutions. Therefore, the said analysis methods are also highly important in terms of the cost of inferior quality, particularly for work accidents, and with the use of such analysis methods, the projects in construction and contracting sector can be performed in a more reliable and economical manner. However, since the analysis methods in the state of the art are mainly restricted to the previous experiences of the project owner, a planning may not always yield accurate results.
In the published patent document No. EP2312510A1 in the state of art, there is disclosed a method designed for managing safety in a workplace. The inventive method includes a computerized management of the quality performance of the suppliers, the contracts and agreements, the database comprising the characteristics of the workplaces, the work tasks and construction field. This method is also executed on a computer program comprising software, and includes bridging of several databases. However, in the method disclosed by the said document, the desired effectiveness of the analysis method, particularly the results of cost of inferior quality, cannot be obtained due to the fact that the parameters used therein are limited.
Brief Description of the Invention
The analysis method according to the present invention, which is suitable for projects in construction and contracting sector and executable on a data processing device comprising previous project documentation of a user in a digital medium, comprises the steps of retrieving a first database comprising a plurality of predetermined/pre-identified theoretical or practical construction project data from a data source; scanning of the said previous project documentation in digital medium with the use of keywords specific to construction sector; creating a second database comprising previous projects of the user and the relevant data therein through classification of the scanned project documentation according to specific parameters; upon creation of the second database, creating a combined database by combining the said first database and said second database; upon creation f the combined database, filtering the latter on the basis of the type of the project to be designed and creating a project-based database; and on request of the user, filtering (i.e. by project schedule, activities, field conditions, keywords) the data of the project-based database and supplying the analysis results to the user.
With the analysis method of the present invention and the software comprising this analysis method, there is provided an effective, reliable analysis of the construction projects while at the same time paying regard to work and worker safety, thereby enabling that measures for possible problems are taken in advance.

Particularly in construction and contracting sector, a number of analyses must be made before the start of a project and/or during the process of project designing. This is important not only for the cost and duration of the project but also for possible problems (e.g. work accidents, delay of the project deadline etc.) likely to be experienced during the performance of the project. Moreover, all the works completed during the performance of the project must also be monitored as much as possible, and in consequence of such observations, the necessary measures must be taken. To this end, several risk analysis methods are available, which perform merely a risk analysis in accordance with certain possibilities. Therefore, they have limited contribution to the planning of the project, and are unable to provide instant notifications taking into account of the changing conditions throughout the project. Furthermore, these methods do not allow instant monitoring of the works completed during the performance of the project. In this case, any erroneous work can only be evaluated during the risk analysis process after it is completed. In view thereof, with the present invention, there is provided an analysis method allowing an effective planning of the project on the basis of previous project data at the stage of project planning, wherein instant notifications can be generated in accordance with the envisaged working method and previous accident experience by considering the changing conditions throughout the project, and wherein necessary measures can be taken in consequence of an update in planning which is made in line with instant monitoring of the performance of the project.
The analysis method according to the present invention, which is suitable for projects in construction and contracting sector (even though the said analysis method is suitable for projects in construction and contracting sector, it may be used in any sector where similar structures are available), is a method executable on a data processing device (e.g. a computer, a smart phone etc.), wherein (since the said method is executable on data processing device, it is supplied to the user in the form of software) there are essentially two databases. The first one of these databases is a database comprising a plurality of predetermined/pre-identified theoretical or practical construction project data, including work safety data and work accidents, which is retrieved from a data source at the beginning of the method and updated periodically (particularly during the execution of the said method). This data source may either be a data processing device (for example a device on which the method is executed) containing the said first database, or a server, or it may be software embodying the said first database and enabling the execution of the method. The second database is, on the other hand, a database comprising previous projects of the user who is supposed to implement the said method, the on-going projects and the relevant data therein. The second database comprises all data - from A to Z - related to a project including work plans, work schedules, work orders, and all kinds of work completed/to be completed within the scope of the project, which database is also updated periodically. If a user is desirous to use the said method in projects to be developed (preferably on his own way and methods), first previous project documentation of the user must be scanned and classified according to certain parameters, and then the said second database must be created. These project documentation may be in any format comprising any data/information relevant to a project (for example, a drawing document comprising a figure related to a project or a plain text document comprising data pertaining to an accident report related to a project etc.). Preferably, work plans and accident reports of previous projects are particularly scanned and classified. In this way, the work load and the duration thereof is reduced, thereby effectiveness of the method is increased. In this respect, since the said method is executed on a data processing device, the user must transmit the project documentation onto a digital medium provided in this device (for example, a non-volatile memory (e.g. a hard disk) of a computer on which the said method is to be executed). By using keywords specific to the construction sector (for example, concrete laying, excavation, construction etc.) previous project documentation in digital medium are scanned, following of which the documents are classified so as to create a second database. This classification is performed depending on various factors such as project type, sub-stages of the project, the project implementation method, the cost of the project, the duration of the project, data relating to the project equipment, data relating to the project team, the region where the project is implemented, accidents occurred during the project, the proportion of the total project cost to the equipment and labor cost, the previous accident rate with respect to the equipment used and worker groups depending on the project type, and the proportion of the sub-stages to the overall project, wherein a document may be used in multiple classes.
Following the step of creating the second database, the first database and the second database are combined so as to create a combined database. Thanks to the combining thereof, both the data pertaining to the previous projects of the user and those relating to different projects developed independent of the user are collected in a single database, enabling ease of operation during the execution of the method. This renders the said method suitable for a project-based use.
In other words, when a user on obtaining the software including the said method loads it to a data processing device, the method starts to operate automatically, and scans the documents in the data processing device on which it is provided by using the predetermined keywords specific to the construction sector and classifies the same as mentioned above. At the end of this classification, the second database is created, following of which the first database retrieved from a source is combined with the newly created second database so as to obtain a different database. Since the combined database comprises both the second database including the project information of the user and the first database including external project information, it is thus rendered a comprehensive database comprising a variety of data types, so upon creation of this combined database, it is proceeded with the steps of the project where the method is to be used. By means of updating the first database and the second database establishing the said combined database periodically, the latter is kept up-to-date so reliable data are provided. Following the step of creating the combined database, the step of filtering thereof based on the type of the project to be developed, and creating a project-based database is performed. With reference to the software on which the said method is provided, the user inputs the software a project name indicating the type of the project, and the software filters the combined database on the basis of the keywords provided under this name. In this way, a project-based database is created so that all necessary analysis is performed through this project-based database. This project-based database can be updated periodically according to especially the data of the on-going project (for example, work schedules, work activities, progress etc.). For instance, after having made a planning for an active project with the method according to this invention, the processes and activities to be performed on the basis of this planning are determined and the documentation comprising such data are also added to the project-based database. More precisely, a planning for an active project may, for example, comprise an excavation process, and all the activities to be performed during such excavation process are scheduled daily and/or hourly. All documentation/data comprising this work schedule and any related documents may also be included into the project-based database of the said method.
The project-based database obtained through the use of the method according to the present invention may be used in planning of the project to be developed. At this stage, in addition to the steps of the said method, there is also performed the step of customizing the project-based database with the use of at least one parameter of the current project. In an illustrative embodiment of this step, the user may customize the project-based database according to a process to be implemented within the current project, and may, for instance, determine the time period for this process. At this stage, previous project data of the user covered by the project-based database and those of external projects are evaluated and the duration of the process is determined. Assuming that the name of the project to be implemented is construction of a single floor building in region A and a process related therewith is an excavation for foundation, then the user first filters the combined database by the phrase construction of a single floor building in region A so that there is obtained a project-based database comprising the data of those projects relating to the single floor buildings previously completed in region A. Then, the project-based database is simplified on the basis of the foundation excavation and the user is allowed to determine the duration of the process with the use of this customized database.
In another illustrative embodiment of the invention, the said method may also comprise the step of searching a network in connection with the project data and updating the project-based database and/or the customized project-based database by retrieving the necessary information from this network. In this embodiment, the said network may, for example, be the Internet and the physical information (weather conditions, soil information etc.) of the region where the project is to be implemented can be instantaneously obtained therefrom. In this way, while planning the excavation process in the project of constructing a single floor building in region A, a search through the Internet is conducted so as to obtain the information as to the soil type and weather conditions, and thus the customized project-based database is updated, thereby allowing the use of all necessary parameters to be evaluated in planning the duration of the process. Accordingly, an accurate and reliable planning can be made.
In an alternative embodiment of the invention, the said analysis method may also comprise the step of displaying, in a section of at least a document of the present project, the previous data and/or current information relating to that section. Thus, while preparing a project planning, the user can view the data of previous experiences and/or instant up- to-date data on the relevant section of the project document, thereby making a more accurate planning. In other words, assume that the user works on a visual document, as part of a construction project of a single floor building in region A, showing the region where the excavation process is to be carried out. And there exist two types of soil in the region where the excavation process is to be carried out, as well as a rocky area in the field. In the document on which the user works, the area corresponding to this rocky area is indicated based on the data obtained from the previous projects of the user, and the areas where different soil types exist are also indicated through illustration of soil types thereon, for example, based on the information retrieved from the network. In this way, the user can view the relevant data simultaneously while making planning so there is prevented to miss a necessary parameter during such planning.
In a further illustrative embodiment of the invention, the said method also comprises the step of filtering the project-based database or customized project-based database by accidents and creating an accident database. In this embodiment, the user may filter the project-based database or customized project-based database by using at least a data and/or at least a parameter relating to an accident and may prepare a project planning on the basis of the possible accidents. In this way, an effective planning can be made prioritizing work and worker safety. In this embodiment, the processes of the project are ' preferably scanned at certain intervals and the project is compared with the accident database that has been obtained. Thus, accident conditions are periodically monitored either for a company or theoretically throughout the project, ensuring that the project is up- to-date and sustainable.
In another preferred embodiment of the invention, there is also available a step of determining possible problem conditions (for example, an accident or delay in the deadline etc.) on the basis of the data provided by the user (especially, project work schedule and process information in this schedule, depending on the project implementation method) and the information obtained from a network in line with the said data, and notifying the user accordingly. In this way, the project process is kept up-to-date thanks to the processing of the instantly varying data, whereby the user is notified of the possible problems in advance. In other words, if the conditions of an accident specified in the previous project data of the user are also available in the current project, at a certain sub-percentage (which is preferably determined by the user and which indicates the coincidence rate between the previous accident conditions and those of a process of the current project), the user is notified about the likelihood of such an accident so that possible problems may be determined in advance, enabling that necessary measures are taken. Preferably, in this embodiment, all possible conditions can be listed starting from the sub-percentage to the exact coincidence (100%). In this embodiment, in addition to the step of notifying the user, there may also exist a step of stopping a device and/or equipment, which is in use, before an accident happens. In this way, an accident arising from a device and/or equipment is prevented so that a reliable method is provided.
In another illustrative embodiment of the invention, the said method also comprises the step of displaying at least a region of the project field by means of a displaying device, transferring the image to a data processing device that runs the said method and processing the image so as to display the relevant information and data of that project field to the user. In other words, it is possible to make a field survey before bidding for a construction project. During this field survey, the user can view at least part of the field where the project is to be implemented on a mobile device (for example, a camera, a mobile phone or a tablet etc.) and save the said image on a data processing device (which may be a data processing device such as a smart phone, a tablet or a laptop carried by the user or may be a remote device such as a desktop computer) which runs the said method. Then, the saved image is processed and such information relating to the area seen on the image as soil type etc., is displayed to the user preferably on the same image.
In addition to the said displaying device, the said method may also comprise the step of displaying to the user all the information and data of a project field by processing the data obtained as a result of monitoring that project field with various devices such as sound, heat, motion receiving and/or sensing devices (for example, a microphone, a heat sensor RFID etc.). In another preferred embodiment of the invention, the said method may also be used for the monitor and instant observance of the project steps and processes during the performance of the project and for notifying the responsible persons, when necessary. In ■ this embodiment, the activities covered by a work schedule of an active project in the project-based database are matched with the data of the combined database, whereby any risks (preferable accident risks) may be defined in advance. In this embodiment, one or more displaying device (for example, a camera, a video-camera etc.) are preferably installed at various regions of the project field (in addition to the displaying device, various devices such as sound, heat, motion receiving and/or sensing devices may also be used). This displaying device may be a displaying device on a mobile device or a displaying device installed on an equipment (i.e. a helmet) used by an individual on the field. Moreover, the said displaying device may be installed at various points of the field, preferably with the use of auxiliary equipment (i.e. a carrier rod), in a fixed and/or movable manner. With the use of displaying device(s) in the field, a 7/24 surveillance can be made. The images of the field are instantly inputted to the project-based database and/or customized project-based database covered by the said analysis method, and are instantly compared with the data of the combined database and/or accident database during the execution of the method. In this way, the risk of potential accidents can be determined, which allows an early intervention. In other words, the images of all objects in the field are recorded by the displaying device(s) installed on the field and conveyed to a device (for example, a computer, a mobile phone, a tablet etc.) that runs the said analysis method. The images obtained from the displaying device are processed by using the said databases and the objects that must be available on the field in accordance with the project-based database and those appearing on the images are compared instantly. In this way, possible accident risks can be determined, which allows notifying the authorized persons in advance. For example, an image of a building in the field is conveyed to the device executing the said method by the said displaying device. After such an image is obtained, various details of the building appearing on the image such as its edges, corners, balconies, guard rails etc. are determined by a number of image processing techniques. Upon such determination, previous accident data are evaluated by means of scanning the said databases via the said analysis method, and in the event of a risky situation, the responsible persons are notified. For instance, if the said building has a balcony and this balcony is not provided with a guard rail, safety conditions of a worker who is working on that balcony are defined, and the conformity of these safety conditions are evaluated by the said analysis method. This is compared with the previous accident conditions so that the risk of a potential accident is defined, following of which the responsible persons are notified, when necessary, before an accident happens. Furthermore, in this embodiment, several lists comprising equipment to be used in an activity to be performed in line with the work schedule, personal protective equipment to be used according to this activity and accident-preventing equipment suitable for this activity are created with the said method. The said method receives the activity information from the project-based database and compares the same with the data of the combined database, and creates the required equipment lists. Thereafter, the images of the project field are compared with these lists and, when necessary, the responsible persons are notified. In this embodiment, the displaying device comprises preferably at least a processor. The lists created on the basis of the activities to be performed in line with the work schedule are conveyed to this displaying device, and then the latter performs a scanning on the project field based on the features of the equipment mentioned in these lists. In this way, the controlling process can be completed in a faster and more practical manner. For example, if the activity in the work schedule is an excavation activity, then one of the equipment to be used may be a digger, and one of the personal protection equipment to be used by the worker performing the said activity may be gloves while one of the accident-preventing equipment may be a shield. In this case, such information is conveyed to the displaying device, which scans the project field for the presence of such equipment in line with this information. If the device detects that a digger and shield are present in the field, but the gloves are absent, it provides a notification to the responsible person. In this way, the field is monitored instantly through an effective and efficient field scanning, whereby a reliable analysis system is obtained. Preferably in this embodiment, in addition to the said equipment lists associated with the activity to be performed, an accident list covering possible accidents that may happen in this activity and causes thereof is created by means of the accident database comprising data of the previously-experienced accidents (which may either be those which are experienced by the user or those experienced in a global scale) obtained as a result of filtering the combined database. Subsequently, the images of the field (in other words, the data comprising the information as to the motion, heat, sound, image etc.) are compared with this accident list, following of which the responsible persons are notified, when necessary. In another alternative embodiment, the accident list created by the accident database in relation with the activity to be performed is conveyed to the displaying device comprising a processor, which enables the displaying device to scan the field in accordance with the data covered by the accident list. For example, one of the accidents in the accident list created in relation with the current activity may be a falling event and one of the causes thereof may be an oil slick on the ground. In this case, the displaying device searches for an oil slick on the ground while scanning the field, and if detected, a notification is supplied to the responsible persons. In this way, there is provided an analysis method wherein safety is prioritized.
In another preferred embodiment of the invention, the said method may also comprise the step of stopping a device and/or equipment, which is being used and causing a risk and/or being the main risk reason, before an accident happens, once a risk is determined as a result of comparisons made in line with the data obtained from the displaying device (and/or sound, heat, motion receiving and/or sensing devices). In this manner, an accident can be prevented before it happens, thanks to the stopping the device and/or equipment in addition to notifying the responsible person and/or the user. Therefore, even in the process of notifying the user/responsible and- stopping the device/equipment by the user/responsible, possible accidents can be prevented, which enables prioritizing worker health and work safety. The software comprising the said method and allowing the execution of the method by a data processing device is user-based software, wherein preferably each user has different access authorizations. In this regard, the said method also comprises the step of dividing a project document into sections (which are subsequent project parts such as electricity works, mechanical works, excavation-filling works, landscaping works, rough construction works or fine construction works etc.), wherein different access authorization may be assigned to each section. Thus, only the relevant user can access to the respective section so that an unconcerned user is prevented to intervene in that section in an uncontrolled manner. In this embodiment, the said sections may also be filtered by time, work type or notification type. Additionally, each user is allowed to view and monitor the works preformed during the progress of the project whereas intervention in the sections which are not related to his field of activity is prevented. In this way, the planning process may be performed in parallel with each section of the project while any uncontrolled intervention is avoided.
The software comprising the said method also comprises such features as importing the project documentation covered by the data processing device on which the analysis method is executed, and in the event that the project documentation is carried on a further external digital medium (for example, on a file uploading server provided through the Internet), identifying the link on which the file is available and processing the files on this link. Thus, the said method can be executed independent of the digital medium covering the documents so that the effectiveness of the method is increased.
The said software also has the feature of providing information to the user in accordance with the commands/parameters to be supplied by the user. In other words, when the project-based database or customized project-based database is created, the user may request information from the software in connection with the project, as a result of which the software provides the user with the information according to the steps mentioned above. For example, if the user requests information about possible accidents and conditions causing such accidents in connection with an excavation process to be performed in region A, the software may provide the user with the information about the possible accidents and related conditions by using the accident database obtained from the customized project-based database. In this way, the said method and the software comprising the method can be used interactively, and the projects are analyzed in an effective manner.
In another preferred embodiment of the invention, the said method also comprises the step of displaying the user previous actions of that user in connection with the current project. In this embodiment, for example on a document of the project which is currently being studied, there are displayed previous actions in relation to that document. In this way, the user can view the works that have been performed up-to-date as well as the processes completed, and can review them, when necessary, and obtain a feedback. Therefore, the project analysis and planning is performed in an effective manner.
In another preferred embodiment of the invention, the data processing device executing the said . method is a mobile device (for example, a smart phone or a tablet). In this embodiment, the location of the user can be detected and current project data (including the last changes) and previous project data in relation to that location can be displayed. For example, when the user is on the field where a project is to be performed, if a project is currently being carried out in that field, the data comprising the last changes as to that project are displayed to the user, or if the field is a field where a project is desired to be performed, the data of the previous projects performed in that region or the physical conditions of the region are displayed to the user. This results in time saving, thereby allowing the analysis process to be shortened.
With the analysis method of the present invention and the software comprising this analysis method, there is provided an effective, reliable analysis of the construction projects while at the same time paying regard to work and worker safety, thereby enabling that measures for possible problems are taken in advance. Although the present invention is disclosed as suitable for use in projects in construction and contracting sector, those skilled in the art would appreciate that it may be used for any sector concerning worker health and work safety.
