| description | Time overrun has been one of the major issues faced by the construction industry in Malaysia for
the recent time being. Construction task has been executed in a slow manner as traditional method
is being practiced and human being are being employed carry out those tasks. However, a series
of technologies have been invented and being implemented in the construction industry in order
to save time required for each construction task. In such a case, one of the newly implemented
technology, Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) will be discuss and identify effect of its
implementation towards time overrun issues. The project title for this dissertation is named The
Application of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) in Alleviating Time Overrun issues in the
Construction Industry. The aim of this dissertation is to identify recognize UAV implementation
does alleviate delay that lead to time overrun in the construction project. Data is collected from six
respondents by using qualitative method as the number of UAV applicants in construction industry
is limited. The targeted respondent for the study is G7 contractor who is financially capable to
employ such technology in Selangor area. Thus, data collected will be coded and tabulated for data
analyzation purposes. Content analysis is being employed to analyze data collected in the
dissertation. Hence, the findings are showing the functions of UAV and those functions that can
be implemented in the construction industry. In addition, the adoption level of UAV in the
construction industry at the current moment is being scrutinize in the study. Although UAV
implementation is increasing the efficiency and effectiveness in carrying out construction task, the
results reveal the possibility of UAV implementation in lessen time overrun issues is low. The
respondents did clarify that UAV is being employed as a tool in the construction industry. |
