Monocular Vision–Enabled 3D Truck Reconstruction: A Novel Optimization Approach Based on Parametric Modeling and Graphics Rendering
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Three-dimensional (3D) truck information, e.g., geometry, orientation, and position, can enable various smart construction applications such as monitoring earthwork, enhancing construction safety, and promoting ...
Multisensory and BIM-Integrated Digital Twin to Improve Urban Excavation Safety
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Urban excavation is an indispensable process for many construction activities such as road paving, house building, and pipe rehabilitation. However, the everincreasing complexity of underground utilities (e.g., water ...
Building “RoboAvatar”: Industry Foundation Classes–Based Digital Representation of Robots in the Built Environment
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Digital representation of robots as Avatars, called “RoboAvatars,” is a premise for value-added construction applications such as simulation, layout design, and task planning. Existing RoboAvatars are described in data ...
Automated Part Placement for Precast Concrete Component Manufacturing: An Intelligent Robotic System Using Target Detection and Path Planning
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Placing embedded parts (EPs), e.g., junction boxes or plastic cable ducts, in a precast concrete (PC) component is a fundamental and repetitive trade in its manufacturing. Yet, such trade is far from being automated ...
An Improved Random Forest–Based Operation Duration Prediction of Long-Distance Tunnel Construction Considering Geological Uncertainty
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Long-distance tunnel construction involves a sequence of construction operations that are influenced by various uncertain factors. Accurate operation duration prediction is critical to inform long-distance tunnel construction ...
Integrating Building Information Model and Augmented Reality for Drone-Based Building Inspection
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) have been widely accepted for building inspection in recent years. However, the advantages of UAV inspection are not fully leveraged because of the absence of related information to assist ...
