Grant to Missouri S&T University will boost AI program to develop best concrete 3D printing options using alternative and sustainable materials so structures can be built away from ready-mix plants.
Contractors are losing out big-time on efficiencies that would benefit projects because they aren’t tapping into 95% of the information that BIM can provide.
One of the things that Barton Malow’s wholly owned subsidiary, LiftBuild, sought to learn about its “top-down” construction approach for the Exchange residential project in Detroit was whether the process could be improved by automating workforce scheduling and bonus payments to skilled trades, reducing delays due to spikes in material prices and scheduling mix ups.
The T2D2 facade inspection artificial intelligence software system has been trained on many types of structures and it is now finding a use case in historic preservation.
Rather than chase the latest tech fad, construction technology practitioners are already deep into using machine learning and artificial intelligence-driven algorithms in their work—from building inspection to picking the right concrete mix.
Artificial intelligence-enhanced analytics are turning up in almost every aspect of construction, with major inroads in project planning and safety. But what if the recommendations from an AI came from your existing jobsite cameras?
Whether delivering plants for batteries or other components or infrastructure components, mandates for electric vehicle adoption are pushing clients to meet deadlines and ask for more of engineers and contractors.
