The document discusses several technologies used in construction including laser levels, BIM augmented reality apps, and Aconex mobile apps. Laser levels can be used for tasks both indoors and outdoors ranging from installing ceiling tiles to site grading. The BIM augmented reality app, launching in late May, will allow visualization of construction sites and sharing of home blueprints on mobile devices. Aconex mobile apps improve communication and organization on jobsites through features like document access, task management, and building inspections with live video.
2. LASER LEVEL
• Lasers can be used in a variety
of jobs where layout is
performed and an accurate,
level reference is needed. Jobs
such as, installing ceiling tiles,
installing chair railings in a
dining room, installing
receptacles for power within a
home under construction.
Some tasks are small, such as
hanging pictures in a level
fashion across a living room
wall. Some tasks are large,
such as installing sewer pipe
or handling a site grading plan
for a new building.

• SET TO LAUNCH MAY
28-29
•EASY ACCESSIBLE TO
BIM (TABLETS/SMART
PHONE)
• HELPS VISUALIZE
CONSTRUCTION SITES
• GIVES CLIENTS AN IDEA
OF HOW HOMES ARE
BUILT
7. BIM AUGMENTED REALITY APP
• Provides construction sites
to foresee and fix problems
• Saves home blueprints and
can carry to jobsites
• Maintain data and
measurements
• Saves time and money with
the use of BIM
8. ACONEX MOBILE APPS
• Aconex is widely used in Modern
Construction as a tool to improve financial
returns, reduce project risk, and improve
communication between all branches of
the company.
• Because of the many purposes that Aconex
serves on the job site there are two
different mobile apps that we have
implemented into our company.

• Aconex field is more specialized toward building
inspections.
• Aconex Field has allowed us to speed up the time it
takes to complete building inspections considerably with
its live video and image sharing system that allows
inspectors to explore project locations and capture
issues fast.
• Once captured Aconex field allows us to keep
Subcontractors up-to-date on issues they’re responsible
for and the relative urgency of each issue.
