Many scheduling methods have been proposed, including scheduling model for repetitive activities of soft logics. For activities with soft logics, the schedules are changeful due to their dependence on the actual progress of other relative works. This circumstance results in not only the difficulty but also the lag in the data collection for the actual progress of the activities with soft logics. Accordingly, to automatically collect actual progress would be a feasible idea for monitoring the schedule of activities with soft logics. The RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) technology has been widely applied in construction industry in these years. Most researches focused on the applications in the identifying and tracking functions. Based on the wireless data access and mobility abilities of RFID, this study used the RFID technology for automatic data collection of actual progress of the work activities in the construction site. Following this idea, the RFID schedule data input mechanism and the project schedule update grogram are developed for site staff to input their work items and actual progresses and to re-schedule the project with real time data. To this end, the proper RFID-based progress data input mechanism was firstly developed using the scenario analysis. Then applying the system analysis and development method, the RFID-Basic Schedule Updating System was finally developed to permit the reference for construction site schedule management.
