, Description:FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention discloses the system and method for alert for waste bin in construction site by using Internet of Things (IoT). The present invention relates to generally waste bin alert to construction team.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Construction waste consists of unwanted material produced directly or incidentally by the construction or industries. Much building waste is made up of materials such as bricks, concrete and wood damaged or unused for various reasons during construction.
Concrete is put into dumpsters or recycling bins in small amounts due to weight. Items such as metal, plumbing materials, wiring and gypsum wall board and wood are placed into their individual bins to be recycled. Over the years, the construction-recycling program has increased, reducing our landfill waste.
Construction waste increases the burden on landfill sites, which are becoming increasingly scarce. In addition, if the waste is not managed properly, materials such as solvents and chemically treated woods can cause soil and water pollution.
Construction waste may contain lead, asbestos, or other hazardous substances. Much building waste is made up of materials such as bricks, concrete and wood damaged or unused for various reasons during construction.
Currently there is no such system which should tell the sanitation team that, waste bin is full and need to move to waste dumping place.
The present invention solves the above problem with the help of Internet of Things (IoT) technology. With the help of internet of things enabled sensors sanitation team can come to know which waste bin is full and need to move to waste dumping place immediately.
The phrase the Internet of Things (IoT) means any object or machine component can have sensors installed to monitor operating conditions, performance levels and/or physical states. In the construction industry, this commonly refers to telematics. The Internet of Things isn't just permeating the construction industry.
The Internet of Things (IoT) is a network of connected devices embedded with electronics, software, sensors, actuators, and so on which enable these objects to collect and exchange data.
The concept of IoT has many applications depending on the physical devices that are connected and one of the most remarkable applications of IoT in construction sector is alerting the construction sanitation team about waste bin.
OBJECTS OF THE INVENTION
The main object of the invention is that, the system and method for alert for construction waste bin by using Internet of Things (IoT).
Another object of the invention is that, easy tracking whether waste bin is completely filled or not.
Other object of the invention is that, Internet of Things enabled sensors are attached to every waste bin.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The present invention discloses the system and method for alert for waste bin in construction site by using Internet of Things (IoT). The alert for waste bin in construction site application is installed at backend server. At very initial stage in construction site, every waste bin is attached with the Internet of things (IoT) enabled sensors. So, whenever waste bin fill completely, sensor attached to it sense it and send alert to construction team member who is operating server. The construction team member send message to sanitation team to collect the waste bin.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF INVENTION
The present invention discloses the system and method for alert for waste bin in construction site by using Internet of Things (IoT).
Internet of Things (IoT) has many applications depending on the physical devices that are connected and one of the most remarkable applications of IoT in construction is alert for waste bin.
The method and system for alert for waste bin in construction site by using Internet of Things (IoT) is comprising of:
Backend server – storing data from smart sensors and invention application is installed
Sensors – sense whether particular waste bin is filled completely or not and send data to backend server
Wi-Fi Modem – maintain connectivity between server and sensors
The each and every construction waste bin has attached with internet of things enabled sensor. This sensor checks whether waste bin is filled completely or not. Then sensor sends data to backend server to alert for collecting a waste bin.
The alert for waste bin in construction site by using Internet of Things (IoT) is comprising of following steps;
Step 1) The alert for waste bin in construction site application is installed at backend server
Step 2) Every construction waste bin is attached with internet of things (IoT) enabled sensor with unique id
Step 3) Wi-Fi modem is installed for connectivity between backend server and sensors
Step 4) When the waste bin is filled completely, it sends alert message to backend server which is handled by construction team member
Step 5) Construction team member send message to sanitation team that the particular waste bin needs to collect
This is the basic model of alert for waste bin in construction site. And scope of invention is not limited to this only.
The internet of things enabled sensor, specially strain sensor which sense whether waste bin is full or not. When it is full, sensor attached to it, sense it and send alert to construction team member who operate backend server. The construction team member send message to sanitation team, to collect particular waste bin for dispose.
The alert for waste bin in construction site by using Internet of Things (IoT) has some advantages such as:
Easy tracking of condition of waste bin – As sensor attached to the each and every waste bin, can be track waste bin condition easily, means it sense whether it is filled completely or not.
Collecting waste bin for dumping on time – When any waste bin is filled completely then sensor sense it and send alert to construction team member. Construction team member send message to sanitation team, to collect the waste bin.
Make a space for new waste – as it sends alert for collecting full waste bin, it creates space for new waste. Making a space for new waste is really very helpful for construction site.
Take an example of the invention, for those sanitation team that have yet to harness IoT connectivity, the drivers generally don’t know how full a waste bin is before they encounter it. That results in a lot of wasted time, fuel, and therefore money. But with the help of this invention, sanitation team can get message from construction team member that particular waste bin if full and must have to collect on urgent basis.
It’s no longer necessary to send worker to check out everything. The invention solves the all problems related to alert for waste bin in construction site.
