Landmark: Discover the Game-Changing Tech Used by a Top Construction Company

Hensel Phelps, one of the largest general contractors, builders and managers of landmark construction projects in the country, is expanding the West end of the Barbara Jordan Terminal at Austin-Bergstrom Airport.
A logistical and regulatory challenge, this project depends on area superintendent Phil Randel and his team of project managers, trade partners and contractors to complete the project by January 2026.
The adoption of cutting-edge technology like drones and terrestrial LiDAR helps the co-pilots of Hensel Phelps' drone program, Mark Blacklin and Maurice Clarke, provide an accurate and current picture of the site for Phil.
Amidst the beating summer heat, Landmark explores how UAS helps Hensel Phelps complete projects on time despite inherent challenges.
In this documentary short film, we delve into the innovative use of unmanned systems (UAS) and drones in the construction industry. Hensel Phelps, a leader in general contracting, leverages the power of UAVs and cutting-edge technology like LiDAR and 3D mapping to enhance their project management strategies. This landmark construction project at Austin-Bergstrom Airport is a prime example of how drones are revolutionizing the way we approach large-scale builds.
From the precision of drone scans and orthomosaics to the integration of Building Information Models (BIM) and Autodesk software, this film highlights the future of engineering and architecture. The ability to create detailed 3D modeling and accurate as-built documentation ensures that every aspect of the project is meticulously planned and executed. As Hensel Phelps continues to push the boundaries of what's possible in construction, the role of unmanned vehicles and advanced surveying techniques becomes increasingly critical in delivering high-quality, on-time results.
