This Viewpoint article by Sharnette Tucker, program manager at HNTB and a leader in PWC’s Professional Development Advisory Council, discusses the many advantages and ways to incorporate AI and predictive data analytics in the construction industry.
Marc Nezet of the Nemetschek Group discusses how technologies like BIM can be used to develop Olympic stadiums more efficiently, cost-effectively, and sustainably.
Don Jacob, Bluebeam co-founder and Chief Innovation Officer, discusses how big data and emerging technologies like blockchain, 3D printing, robotics, digital twins, and AI are poised to reshape the way buildings are designed, constructed, and operated.
This Viewpoint explores what happened to the concept of “City Information Modeling” (CIM) for city planning and management, which is similar to the concept of “Building Information Modeling” (BIM) for building design and construction. Has CIM been subsumed by the concept of “urban digital twins”?
This article explores the cutting-edge AEC technology applications developed by CORE Studio, a dedicated software development group at Thornton Tomasetti. The applications including Konstru, Swarm, Asterisk, Trace, and many more for design, analysis, collaboration and visualization.
Layer is a new AEC application that was launched close to six months ago to address what seems to be an obvious need in the industry—organizing and integrating the vast amount of disparate data that is typically collected on site during the retrofit or construction of a building project.
Fender Katsalidis describes the implementation of AEC technology on the “Merdeka 118” project, a 118-storey, mega-tall skyscraper under construction in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Upon completion, it will become the tallest building in Malaysia and Southeast Asia, and the second-tallest building in the world.
This article describes the research that was conducted by a team at the Technical University of Denmark to study the impact of COVID-19 on the passenger flow in the Copenhagen Metro, using passenger flow data and station floorplan drawings as well as Bentley Legion software for simulation of pedestrian flow.
