Abstract |
| The EU-project “Development of a Real Time Quality Support System for the Houses Construction Industry” (QuCon) was introduced in Schwieger et al. (2010). Within this project the Institute of Engineering Geodesy (IIG) is developing together with further partners from the Cyprus a real time quality assurance system. A construction process model and a quality model which considers both process and product quality was developed and defined for residential houses construction processes. In this article an adopted quality model will be introduced which is more application-oriented. Respecting this adopted quality model a real time quality index can be determined by a scoring system using so-called ”checkpoints”. The scoring and the weighting of the checkpoints will be discussed. Using the developed construction process model and the scoring system the small and medium enterprises (SMEs) of different countries can monitor the current project states, document the processes and the achieved quality, so that reasonable decisions and corrective can be initiated and the quality can be improved and assured in real time. |
