Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) industry is undergoing a significant shift from conventional labour-intensive methods to automation through the use of digital technologies (DTs), and has played a significant role in this revolution. DTs are proven to bring various benefits to the AEC industry, such as enhanced visualization, better data sharing, reduced construction waste, increased productivity, sustainable performance, and safety improvements; however, the rapid growth in the application of DTs in the AEC industry still poses many challenges, and the resulting scientific issues still deserve the attention of scholars. As a result, this Special Issue invites authors to submit high-quality literature on topics related to digital technologies in architecture, engineering, and construction. We welcome original research or systematic literature reviews using survey research, mathematical modelling, qualitative research, and other methods.
