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.
Temporary traffic lights keep the network moving during works, but they also create avoidable operational cost and downtime, and the risk of service level breaches.
A university research project has developed a comprehensive, design-stage methodology for accurately identifying and prioritising carbon emission reduction strategies across the entire building life cycle by integrating BIM with life cycle assessment.
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.
Simon Lewis, partner in the construction and engineering team at Womble Bond Dickinson, and nima senior vice-chair, reflects on the impact of BIM in construction.
As steel detailers face tighter schedules, increasingly complex hybrid structures, and ongoing labour shortages, automation and interoperability are no longer optional – they are essential to staying competitive.
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.
Re-flow have introduced two new safety features to their field management software – ‘Known Hazards’ and ‘Geo Alerts’ – designed to make compliance effortless.
