Robotic design construction : digital fabrication strategies for freeform masonry casting and mobile assembly
… and novel tools to solve problems in design and construction. However, the application of digital fabrication still needs more flexibility that allows different groups in a society to redesign fabrication processes based on their own needs and values. Looking at robotic facilities and natural mud …

A Connected Work Zone Hazard Detection System for Highway Construction Work Zones
Roadway construction workers have to work in close proximity to construction equipment as well as high-speed traffic, exposing them to an elevated risk of collisions. This research aims to develop an innovative holistic solution to reduce the risk of collisions at roadway work zones. To this end, a …

Decision support system for earthmoving production estimates and equipment allocation
Construction planners require in-depth production estimates in an area of operations to optimally deploy equipment to prepare an area to its end state. With the increasing use of satellite imagery and voxelized LiDAR data, digital elevation models can be utilized for these estimates. However, an …

Automated Spatial Progress Monitoring for Asphalt Road Construction Projects
Construction progress monitoring allows schedule and/or cost deviations to be identified early enough to effectively implement corrective actions. At least 77% of transportation projects experience cost overruns, and as much as 75% of these overruns have been attributed to “real” construction …
