Although it was the last sector to show growth after a long
period of casualties, in 2018 civil construction showed considerable signs of
recovery.
As a result, market fears were replaced by the resumption of
investments, which are again the bet of many companies in this field.
Thus, in order for you to stand out from the competition and
find smart and economical ways to offer your services, keeping an eye on trends
in construction is essential.
In this article, we will address some trends in the
construction market for this year. It is worth knowing and using this knowledge
as a differential for your business.
THE CONSTRUCTION MARKET IS OPTIMISTIC!
According to the Brazilian Chamber of Industry and
Construction (CBIC), in 2018 there was a 30% increase in the launch of
residential developments in the country, and a 23% increase in property sales
in general.
The reason for this growth was mainly due to the country's
economic reality, which stopped being negative and remained stable during the
year.
According to projections made by the Getúlio Vargas
Foundation (FGV) for the year 2020, there will be an increase of 1.3% in the
country's Gross Domestic Product (GDP), a value that may mean the resumption of
growth in Brazil, including civil construction .
Ideally, companies should start preparing for this growth,
understanding the economic moment and trends in civil construction. Thus, they
will be able to make the most of this opportunity.
TECHNOLOGY IS INCREASINGLY PRESENT ON THE CONSTRUCTION SITE
As in other sectors of the industry, civil construction is
currently experiencing a moment of technological revolution aimed at
significant improvements in innovative and increasingly intelligent buildings.
The trend is that the use of technology on the construction
site is increasingly present, from the handling of machines and equipment, to
project management, as we will see below.
INTERNET OF THINGS, THE INTERNET OF THINGS NOW IN CONSTRUCTION
The Internet of Things IoT ( Internet of Things, IoT) is the
integration of technology with electronic equipment, they are connected through
sensors and technologies with internet connection, offering security and
practicality.
Therefore, the internet of things is an explicit reality in
our daily lives, just look at personal electronic devices, cars, TV etc.
As in other sectors, the presence of technology is essential
to perform tasks efficiently and economically. In civil construction, this
technology has also integrated tasks, and the use of IoT is part of the daily
life of many companies or is the desire of so many others.
It is already a reality at construction sites that machines
connected to a tablet or cell phone provide performance diagnostics and data
collection for sharing.
USE OF DRONES
Like most of the technology we have today, initially, drones
were for military use. These unmanned aerial vehicles were used for monitoring
and army operations.
It did not take long for this vehicle to be used for many
other purposes, and today it is one of the trends in civil construction.
Drones can be used to capture terrain images with greater
precision, for the elaboration of 3D projects and animations, and the
topographic measurement of difficult to access terrains.
MANAGEMENT SOFTWARE
With the presence of technology in civil construction, there
is a very promising and competitive market, construction management software.
With these programs it is possible to manage a project in a
practical way, such as input control, project management, 3D animations and
diagnostics.
