Abstract: In the construction industry, an earthwork highly dependent on construction equipment is a sort of decision-making process which is performed to establish an efficient work plan and construction plan of a fleet of construction equipment moving in and out of a construction site and to make work instructions in real time. The system of delivering a decision made to each equipment operator is aimed at achieving field management with the efficient and stable control of construction equipment. By suggesting the optimal equipment combination, soil distribution and a moving path of individual equipment in consideration of earthworks which are performed with the cooperation of multiple equipment, it is possible to create a work plan of earthwork equipment actively. If the construction equipment management system technology based on construction equipment fleet management and smart construction technology are applied to earthwork projects, it is expected to bring about fast, accurate and safe construction and thereby to increase productivity.
