Abstract
Since desktop computer networks cannot be conveniently used at construction jobsites, a wireless-networked pocket PC was developed as a management information terminal for management personnel at construction jobsites along with management information system. The system enables management personnel to record inspection data, browse the data and shop drawings, update the schedule and refer to technical documents. Implementation of the system in a construction project shows that the wireless-networked pocket PC system can facilitate construction management as a management information terminal at construction jobsites.
