Management:
Overview and focus on the objective
Optimum use of time, budget and human resources

5. The most digital housing you can get today?
TALER: POL
For hvis vi ikke får en fælles standard og DBK...
... Så bliver dette den mest digital bolig man kan få i Danmark

Balanced Building has been made by Velux and MTH in co-creation.
BB is a pentHouse and a platform that show an energyproducing home can be made.
Focus is moreover on liveability i.e. lots of daylight and a supurb indoor enviroment.
Five housing models that match target group preferences on price, quality, style and structure

Muligheder i brug af RFID og sensor teknologi:
Logistik – digital data opsamling til brug senere i processen
Kvaltitets styring – måling af fugt og temperatur i materialer
Facility Management
Dokumentation – sammenhæng mellem den fysiske bygning og med den digitale model
Potential through the use of RFID and Sensor Technology:
Logistics - digital data collection to further use in the process
Quality Assurance - monitoring humidity and temperature in products
Documentation - connecting the physical building with the digital model

8. Challenges with RFID and sensor technology
Experience
Materials limits the wireless exchange
Too expensive with wireless sensors throughout the construction
Insight
Missing assurance that the wireless sensors can be seen in operation
Wireless sensors have limited lifetime
Several standards
Conclusion
Reading distance can be a problem Water and metal interference the RFID-signal It may be necessary with multi-frequency readers
Udstyret skal kunne anvendes på en byggeplads
Hårdføre enheder
Let at håndtere på pladsen
Let at bruge systemet
Mangler byggepladser til afprøvning
Læseafstand kan være et problem
Vand og metal forstyrrer signalet
Det kan blive nødvendigt med multifrekvente læsere
Installation af central serverstruktur

9. Cases - RFID and sensor technology in constructions
Examples: Hobro – passiv tags in prefab concrete elements – Bjerringbro – active tags monitoring humidity and temperature in concrete floors 2010 – Esbjerg – active tag monitoring humidity and temperature in exterior wall 2010 – Frederiksberg - active tags temperature in concrete constructions 2010 – Ørestaden - active tags monitor and logs temperature in concrete constructions – Aabenraa - active tags monitor and logs humidity and temperature in membrane and roof structure with insulation – Copenhagen - active tags monitor and logs humidity and temperature in exterior walls.

10. Cases and insight (1/2): RFID in precast concrete elements
Phone as a reader
Passive tags, and short reading distance
From RFID-data to information which becomes knowledge which can be communicated
Communication tool between the various parties
RFID and Sensor technology in floor constructions
Professional reading
Active tags and long read range, but water and metal limits
Knowledge for logistics and the next step in the process
Water and metal limits: a need to test the cable connection

11. Cases and insight (2/2): RFID and sensor technology - monitor and logs
Professional RFID and sensor solution
Monitoring change in humidity and temperature with both short and long term
Logistics and opportunity for data capture to process eg QA

12. Perspectives with RFID and sensor technology
What the near future offers...
Value chain with smart tags that can measure temperature, vibration, pressure - and can remember…..
Knowledge sharing and communications in the value chain Data Management and classification of objects
New roles and competencies in the process
