Abstract

The construction industry, similar to other industries, has been moving toward automation and implementation of AI tools to enhance analysis, management and decision-making. The construction industry typically takes longer than other industries in inaugurating innovation and advanced technologies due to the complex nature of the industry. Research effort is deemed necessary to understand needs and overcome challenges in terms of studying the capabilities and potential of existing tools and technologies in areas related to construction engineering and management. The current Research Topic attempted to collect relevant research work in terms of automation and AI application in constructing new assets and managing existing infrastructure. Further research is needed to standardize these processes and align research work with current needs.
