Nowadays, technology used in the construction world have known a new era in the construction Mauritius industry. With new machinery, automated robots a lot changed in creating and adapting the industry to improve the ways works conditions in which they were being done, boost efficiency, improve health and safety and many other benefits.

Machine Learning

Artificial Intelligence used to train intelligence in a machine to reproduce human behaviour is the real future. On the other side machine learning is a field of artificial intelligence but they go along with statistical techniques, used to give a computer the ability to learn from data without being explicitly programmed. Both are fast becoming integral pieces of technology in the construction industry.

In 50 years, computer systems will be used to program robots, machines, or to automatically calculate and design house building. It is already being done and being used today in the construction in Mauritius, continuing to help advance construction technology with the industry able to benefit from increased efficiencies in cost and speed.

Robotics & Drones

Robots play a significant role today in the construction Mauritius industry even if it is among one of the least automated industries that features manual-intensive labor as a primary source of productivity. Robots require a controlled environment and tasks that are repetitive and non-variable so it needs well skilled people around.

Construction sites in Mauritius are now becoming smarter, with the rise of construction technology, thus robots can be programmed and used in this way too.

Building Information Modelling Technology

A 3D modelling tool used a lot by engineers, architectures and other professionals that need to do plans, design and manage buildings infrastructure. Models are being created with support document and project plans.

This BIM technology makes a better collaboration within experts who can combine their ideas together through the same model whether it is architecture and structures. They have the review of the project evolution and working results in real time.

Experts working in construction Mauritius are very optimistic when it comes to more development of BIM features and subsequent technology will result with big changes in construction project design, development, deployment and management.

3D printing

When taking into account the impact to changes in material sourcing 3D printing is quickly becoming an indispensable construction in Mauritius technology. The boundaries of this technology are pushed beyond the designer’s table by creating a three-dimensional object from a computer-aided design model, building the object up layer by layer.
