In the past seven years, construction companies have been growing rapidly due to technology advancements that aid in construction. More companies are adapting and becoming more open to using new technologies in order to create a more efficient workplace. Here are the top evolving technologies for construction companies:

Virtual Reality

Specifically for training purposes, virtual reality has become the best way to train new construction workers. Virtual reality allows workers to ‘perform’ activities that are dangerous to do in real life or that can be expensive or difficult to complete. By using this, new workers are able to complete their training that is accurate and can be used by anyone without any risks presented. 

Augmented Reality 

Augmented reality works closely with virtual reality. Augmented reality is the actual way of inserting data into the field. A company can virtually set up a construction site through augmented reality and be able to train, and do tasks in this reality without any of the dangers or costs associated with doing it in real time. 

Machine Learning

Machine learning consists of, but is not limited to analyzing and categorizing data, increasing safety, reducing costs, creating algorithms and learning from previous data systems without being directly programmed. These types of machines will benefit every aspect of construction companies. 

Artificial Intelligence

Artificial intelligence is making its way into many businesses, including the construction field. This can help with regulating the safety of workers and mimic machinery. To learn more about artificial intelligence in construction, read here. 

Jerdon was started in 1984 by the current management. We started with just a small crew of highly motivated workers set out on building quality projects. That same motivation is still alive today at Jerdon. Each and every project we undertake is taken as a challenge to do it better than we did the last, and when you have been in business as long as we have you know we are constructing quality. Feel free to contact us for more information.
