1. ABOUT THIS EPISODE
The Future of Lift Planning
In this episode of The Construction Cogs Podcast, Gheorghe Busuioc from Construct-Tech Solutions discusses how digital technology is changing the way lifting operations are planned, communicated and understood on site.
The conversation covers 3D Lift Plans, 3D RAMS, rescue planning, digital documentation and the use of AI within lifting operations, while also discussing one of the most important points in construction technology — technology should support competent people, not replace their knowledge, experience or judgement.
The episode also demonstrates some of the technology being developed by Construct-Tech and looks at how complex lifting information can be made easier for site teams to understand and access.
2. ABOUT CONSTRUCT-TECH SOLUTIONS
Engineering, Visualisation & Digital Construction
Construct-Tech Solutions provides specialist lifting and construction documentation for projects across the UK and Europe, combining traditional engineering principles with modern 3D and digital technology.
Our services include 3D Lift Plans, 3D RAMS, Rescue Plans, lifting procedures, risk assessments, method statements and interactive digital documentation.
Rather than simply producing another document, our objective is to make technical information easier to understand. Using 3D environments, visual annotations, animations and smart-device access, site teams can see how an operation is intended to be carried out before work begins.
Technology is used as an additional engineering and communication tool — the planning, calculations and decisions remain based on competent professional judgement.
3. ABOUT CONSTRUCTION COGS
The Construction Cogs Podcast
Construction Cogs provides a platform for people working across the construction industry to share their knowledge, experience and ideas.
The podcast brings together people from different areas of construction to discuss how the industry works, how it is changing and the people and technology helping move it forward.
As Construction Cogs puts it, every operative and piece of plant forms part of the wider construction machine — each one acting as another “cog” within the industry.
