Compliance inspection is essential to ensure the quality of the ready-mixed concrete (RMC) supply chain. However, the current RMC compliance inspection is a labor-intensive and time-consuming manual task and lacks efficiency and transparency. This paper proposes a blockchain-based platform to cope with these challenges. Besides, an auto-generation method of smart contract for RMC compliance inspection based on ontology is proposed to reduce the barrier to utilizing blockchain. The framework design and information interaction flow are then demonstrated in detail. Furthermore, the performance of the platform in actual projects is evaluated using a case study. The results indicate that the proposed platform can improve the efficiency, transparency, and traceability of the RMC compliance inspection and facilitate the further applications of blockchain in the construction sector.
