现有的跟踪和管理材料测试实验室检验的方法是通过纸质文件进行手工记录。然而,使用这种劳动密集型方法收集的信息在管理检查结果时是不可靠和无效的。此外,即时输入、检索、分析和传播结果数据需要大量的时间和精力。因此,一个自动化和用户友好的质量管理体系是必要的。本研究提出基于无线射频识别(RFID)的品质管理系统,作为品质资料的收集、过滤、管理、监控与共享平台。有前途的信息技术,如RFID技术、移动设备(pda)和门户网站的集成可以帮助提高材料测试管理中信息流的有效性和灵活性。射频识别适用于各种建筑应用,并通过提高数据输入的速度和准确性来节省成本。本研究展示了基于rfid的质量管理应用程序的有效性,该应用程序称为基于rfid的质量检验和管理(RFID-QIM)系统,用于混凝土样品检验和管理,以增强质量测试实验室的自动化数据收集和信息管理。本研究主要侧重于评估利用基于rfid的技术来积累、管理、监控和分发与质量相关的数据的潜力。此外,RFID-QIM系统随后应用于台湾测试实验室(建筑部门)的案例研究,以证明所提出的方法在混凝土试件质量测试信息管理中的有效性。提出了一种通用的系统架构,并对其实现进行了描述。
Existing methods for tracking and managing the inspection in material test labs utilize manual recording by paper-based documents. However, information collected using such labor-intensive methods is unreliable and ineffective when managing inspection results. Moreover, inputting, retrieving, analyzing and disseminating the result data instantaneously require a significant amount of time and effort. Therefore, an automated and user-friendly quality management system is necessary. This study proposes Radio Frequency Identification (RFID)-based quality management system, which functions as a platform for gathering, filtering, managing, monitoring and sharing quality data. The integration of promising information technologies such as RFID technology, mobile devices (PDAs) and web portals can help enhance the effectiveness and flexibility of information flow in material test management. Radio frequency identification is suited to various construction applications and generates cost savings via increased speed and accuracy of data entry. This study demonstrates the effectiveness of an RFID-based quality management application called the RFID-based Quality Inspection and Management (RFID-QIM) System for concrete specimen inspection and management to enhance automated data collection and information management in a quality test lab. This study focuses mainly on evaluating the potential for utilizing RFID-based techniques to accumulate, manage, monitor and distribute data related to quality. Additionally, the RFID-QIM system is then applied to a case study in a test lab (construction division) in Taiwan to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed methodology in information management for concrete specimen quality testing. A generic system architecture is also proposed, and its implementation is described.
