Since November 2020, the two companies selected the 'Seocho Grand Xi' construction site in Seoul as a pilot site and demonstrated construction site-specific wireless communication, real-time worker location tracking, an AI video analysis-based safety management system, a tower crane safety solution, and IoT helmets. In particular, through the 'Real Time Location System (RTLS),' they identified workers' locations down to the building, floor, and unit number level and enabled monitoring by safety managers.
In addition, CCTVs were installed throughout the construction site using AI technology and wireless communication infrastructure. The system recognizes people and objects in the footage captured by the cameras and analyzes the status and movements of workers as well as the movement of heavy equipment using AI. A solution was also introduced to ensure the safety of tower crane operations. It prevents tower crane collisions by detecting crane movements with sensors to determine predicted collision distances and issuing real-time wireless automatic alerts in the event of a collision risk. By calculating the workload based on work weight and frequency, operational efficiency was also enhanced through data analysis.
In addition, the 'IoT Helmet,' which allows for the rapid assessment of on-site conditions in CCTV blind spots and during emergencies, enables quick response by allowing real-time monitoring through a camera and walkie-talkie mounted on the worker's helmet.
Based on this verification, LG Uplus plans to prepare for commercialization within the year to enable the introduction of smart construction solutions. GS E&C also plans to develop usage procedures and case studies for smart construction solutions to utilize for safety management and productivity improvement at construction sites.

Yunggiwon Applyes Wireless Load Monitoring Technology to Real-World Sites
The Korea Institute of Civil Engineering and Building Technology (KICT), Lotte Engineering & Construction, and BuildIt jointly developed wireless load monitoring technology for system supports and applied it to the construction site of the Gwangmyeong Medical Complex Cluster project in Gyeonggi Province. The wireless load monitoring technology for system supports is a technique that remotely monitors the load on system supports, which are temporary skeletal structures that serve as support during concrete placement to ensure safety, using Bluetooth-based wireless load measurement sensors.
