We are delighted to present a CAD.42 project in the area of construction site interference management. Our real-time georeferencing technology for equipment has considerably reduced the risk of collisions between machines on the Eole – Puit Gambetta site, thus improving safety and efficiency.
Case study: Eole construction site
We are proud to have been able to implement our solution on the Eole site, where the coactivity between a traveling crane and a mobile crane was necessary. Thanks to our RTK.42 system, we were able to install sensors on the jib head of the mobile crane, which makes it possible to know in real time the position of the hook in relation to the overhead crane. Additionally, an end-of-travel laser pointer was placed on the overhead crane to measure the distance between it and the mobile crane.
Increased security and incident prevention
To guarantee the safety of operations, the driver of the mobile machine has a tablet which indicates the position of the overhead crane in real time. When the overhead crane approaches an area defined as “prohibited”, the driver receives visual and audible alert messages on his tablet, informing him of the imminent presence of another machine. In addition, a rotating beacon lights up as soon as the overhead crane enters the intervention zone of the mobile machine, thus alerting other companions on the site.
Data mining and continuous improvement
The use of the data collected by our system makes it possible to identify organizational problems, productivity and the operation of machinery and equipment. This valuable information allows companies to take corrective action to optimize their operations and improve their efficiency.
At CAD.42, we remain committed to developing innovative solutions to ensure safety and efficiency on construction sites. We are grateful to our customers and partners who trust us and allow us to push the boundaries of technology in this area.
