Description
One stop solution for groundworkers in construction
GroundApp is a mobile application developed as a one-stop solution for a wide range of calculations performed in groundworks in construction. The app is developed responding to a critical need in groundworks, where engineers use multiple, ad-hoc tools to routinely evaluate quantities and dimensions. This way, and mostly performed away from the office, calculations are cumbersome, time-consuming, and error-prone. Moreover, not knowing how to get around engineering references and conversion tables, groundworkers mostly rely on engineers to perform even the most straightforward of calculations. It is in this context that GroundApp is released as an easy-to-use tool for both engineers and construction workers. In this regard, the app is purposely designed to be simple for the use of workers, who might not necessarily have the required engineering background. The app hosts multiple calculation modules with clear and plain sketches and schematics. Modules tackle various calculations needed for groundworks, such as those involving manholes, kerbs, and pipes, among others. Also, quantity conversions from weight to volume, and vice versa, are available for commonly used groundwork materials. Although metric units are presently supported by GroundApp, some modules are already enabled to perform calculations in imperial units. Soon, all modules will also support imperial units. The standalone app does not require an internet connection to work. Once purchased, the app is available for lifetime use.
This mobile app is our first venture into construction innovation and is created through an intense collaboration with engineers with vast groundworks experience. Academic support for development and testing was provided by the Department of Civil Engineering, Aston University, Birmingham, UK.
