Ian De Dobbelaere, commercial project manager at Komatsu Smart Construction, offers insight into how autonomous technology is transforming productivity and why making machines more intelligent could have implications far beyond the industries they operate in.
As AI becomes infrastructure rather than novelty, expectations will shift toward systems that support custom training, respect data boundaries, preserve authorship and operate where design decisions are actually made, writes Roderick Bates of Chaos.
A cave-inspired home has become the first 2-storey 3D printed reinforced concrete house to obtain government approval under Japan’s stringent seismic design requirements.
The UK and North America are leading the way in embracing data in buildings – but maximising its use as a tangible driver of performance remains a “glass ceiling”, according to new study.
Asset owners are increasingly turning to AI to improve building performance, compliance and safety, yet many are finding that technology alone is not enough. This article will explore how fragmented building information undermines AI’s potential and the foundational steps asset owners must take before AI can succeed.
Advances in cloud-based artificial intelligence are introducing new approaches to scaffolding safety inspection and compliance within construction site management.
Much of the talk around AI in construction has focused on anticipated productivity gains but arguably the greatest transformation could lie in how risk is identified, decisions are justified and responsibility is allocated, writes Mark Macaulay of Dentons.
Small and global firms pay price for inaction on AI adoption – while mid-size companies reap the rewards, writes Maryrose Lyons, founder of the AI Institute.
In this article, Yves Padrines, CEO of the Nemetschek Group, explores how AI, technology and collaboration are driving a new era of intelligence and transformation across the global construction industry.
In AI, it’s not about simply being cutting-edge; it’s about designing human-centric technology built around real people and their daily workflows, says Charles Sheridan, chief data & AI officer at Nemetschek Group.
Kenny Ingram, VP of C&E and Chris Knight, global industry director, C&E, IFS explore why the construction industry is yet to embrace AI adoption- and the benefits it could be missing out on.
As the built environment moves towards net zero and greater circularity, materials passports are a tool used to improve transparency and sustainability in buildings.
Major construction projects are getting harder to deliver. Programmes are more compressed, scopes are larger and more complex, the risk profile is harsher and clients expect fewer surprises. In that reality, how teams plan and work together becomes decisive, writes James Bowles.
Artificial intelligence can play a vital role in construction but it cannot replace strong planning and human expertise, writes Nick Gray, chief operating officer for the UK and Europe at Currie & Brown.
