The construction industry is one of the world's largest industries, with an annual budget of
$10 trillion globally. Despite its size, the efficiency and growth in labour productivity in the …

Abstract 3D point cloud data obtained from laser scans, images, and videos are able to
provide accurate and fast records of the 3D geometries of construction-related objects. Thus …

While unavoidable, inspections, progress monitoring, and comparing as-planned with as-
built conditions in construction projects do not readily add tangible intrinsic value to the end …

Computer vision (CV)-based technologies have been used to automate construction
progress monitoring. The automation attempts to maximise precision and minimise human …

Over the last decade, particular interest in using state-of-the-art emerging technologies for
inspection, assessment, and management of civil infrastructures has remarkably increased …

Bridges are critical infrastructure, and effective operation and maintenance (O&M) is
essential for ensuring the good condition of bridges. Owing to the increasing complexity of …

This paper investigates the viability of using synthetic point clouds generated from building
information models (BIMs) to train deep neural networks to perform semantic segmentation …

Falling behind schedule and having discrepancy between the as-built and designed
baseline plans are unfavourable events that often occur in construction projects. Hence, real …

This study presents a quality inspection technique for full-scale precast concrete elements
using laser scanning and building information modeling (BIM). In today's construction …

Abstract Building Information Models (BIMs) are becoming the official standard in the
construction industry for encoding, reusing, and exchanging information about structural …
