COMPARISON OF PHOTOGRAMMETRY TOOLS CONSIDERING REBAR PROGRESS RECOGNITION

Construction progress monitoring is an important process throughout the project timeline towards its successful completion. Among imaging techniques, photogrammetry is considered as economical and effective method. However, few studies can be found on construction progress monitoring via photogrammetry; thus, not much guideline is available for this domain. This study evaluated the photogrammetry tools for the progress assessment of the rebar grid framework. Photogrammetry tools were evaluated and analysed following defined criteria, and Agisoft Metashape, and 3DF Zephyr were identified as better options. This study aims to provide a guideline to construction industry professionals and stakeholders towards the adoption of photogrammetric progress assessment for construction activities. © 2022.
