A weekly round up of news for digital construction professionals 

The construction projects market in the UAE is to be worth AED 279bn ($76bn) by 2024, according to a Research and Markets report. In the coming two years the report predicts that Covid-19 will continue to affect growth in the residential, commercial, industrial and institutional sectors. In the short-term, investment will continue to be driven by government spending on infrastructure.

Levels of consistency and quality are the main benefits of modular construction, says Justin Stewart, CEO of Synergy Construction. Cost savings are not always possible when compared to traditional methods. Financing can also be a challenge, because much of the work is done offsite before being transported to the location, making it harder to get a loan.

Technologies such as 3D laser scanning will help reduce costs in the construction industry, particularly in the Mechanical, Electrical and Plumbing sector. It is faster, easier and more precise than traditional manual methods of checking onsite work and streamlines workflows.

Benefits to using 3D laser scanning include the reduction of errors, improved efficiency and better safety, says a separate report. The technology gives construction professionals the ability to monitor, assess and analyse data captured from the site and lays the foundation for overall better information management on a project.
