Tower Crane Safety Monitoring System Design
Tower cranes play an important role in the construction industry. Working with tower cranes creates several safety hazards in any construction site. Unsafe working practices at the site may cause potential injuries risk, costly damages to buildings or materials, and even fatalities.
Tower Crane Safety Monitoring system (HiCharm TSM) is the combined use of Internet of Things technology and Sensor Detection Technology that enable the critical tower crane operation parameters such as the load, moment, height, trolley slewing, swing direction, wind speed, luffing angle, etc. into the visual digital display to provide the tower crane operators as auxiliary operation assistance.
The same tower crane working parameters will also be uploaded to HiCharm Cloud and the data will be shared via the IoT-Cloud Platform (HiCharm Cloud) to other remote users for a real-time online safety monitoring of the tower cranes.
