Abstract: The endeavor of this thesis focuses on designing a monitoring system to provide a cost-effective solution on quality assurance for construction projects. The construction site monitoring system integrates a long-range wireless network, network cameras, and a web-based collaborative platform. The users of the system could obtain the most updated status of construction sites, such as behaviors of workers, project progress, and site events anywhere with Internet connectivity. It was carefully configured in order to maintain the reliability under the reactive conditions of the construction sites. This thesis reports the architecture of the monitoring system and reviews the related technologies. The system has been implemented and tested on two construction sites and promising results were obtained.
