Abstract/Summary
In Winter of 2019, members of the Associated General Contractors, Student Chapter at Cal Poly traveled to Selena, Belize to complete soccer bleachers at the local soccer field. This trip offered an excellent case study into feasibility and benefits of new construction technology on all project sizes and in different countries. SketchUp was used in multiple phases of this project including design, estimating and the creation of as-builts. Procore offers an array of useful features including the scheduling, daily logs and meetings that were used on this project. The scheduling feature was useful in tracking travel deadlines and for monitoring critical milestones to ensure that the project was completed within the travel window. Daily logs were instrumental in tracking material usage, production, deliveries and manhours that were way easier than the old fashion way of recording with pen and paper. The meeting feature automatically tracked, reminded and forwarded agendas saving valuable time through automation.
