Application of RFID Technology in Asphalt Pavement Construction

Article Preview

Abstract:

This paper discusses Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology and its potential applications in the asphalt pavement construction industry. RFID technology offers wireless communication between RFID tags and readers. These fundamental properties eliminate manual data entry and introduce the potential for automated processes to increase project productivity, construction safety, and project cost efficiency. Construction contractors, owners, and material suppliers that believe technology can further develop methods and processes in construction should feel obligated to participate in RFID studies for the advancement of the construction industry as a whole.
