Jomathan Hughley says rapid innovation will come from the push for more research and long-term structures in space, including on the moon and Mars. 

Three construction technology experts consider what AECOM's 2025 acquisition of Consigli AS means for generative artificial intelligence in design and construction.

Large critical infrastructure projects involve lots of moving parts, and mistakes do occasionally happen.

Commentary: It's ironic that the one thing that might be able to help manage the massive need for electrical design created by $1 trillion in data center investment to power artificial intelligence is... artificial intelligence-assisted electrical design. 

Don't chase demos for using artificial intelligence on your projects, without preparing to make it actually work. 

OpenSpace co-founder and CEO Jeevan Kalanithi says artificial intelligence must go visual to succeed in construction.
