Artificial Intelligence in Construction: Building a Sustainable Future

This is a governed preview built from the book’s published description and learning points. It is not presented as a chapter when no chapter sample is available in the website source.

AI is used in construction for planning, safety monitoring, materials, scheduling, sustainability, and the messy realities of actual building sites. It looks at where AI is already earning its keep in Construction, where the claims run ahead of the evidence, and what sensible adoption actually looks like.

What does this preview cover?

It maps the practical applications, the operational pinch points, the decision workflows, and the reliability questions that appear when AI moves from demo to deployment in Construction.

What questions does the full book tackle?

• Where AI is already being used in construction today — and where sites, crews, and delays decide.
• The less glamorous but more useful part is site ops, safety, and delays.
• Key themes including planning, site safety, computer vision, digital twins.
• The limits, risks, and awkward questions worth asking before you sign off on the sales pitch.

Construction is one of those areas where AI can help, but only if the claims survive contact with cost, safety, scheduling, and energy use. That is where this book keeps its attention.
