Trying to keep projects moving during a viral pandemic and partial construction freeze is no small task, and project teams are finding new ways to keep things on schedule when site visits and office meetings are no longer viable.

The Precast/Prestressed Concrete Institute has recently commissioned the largest Ultra High-Performance Concrete implementation project in which six major precast concrete companies are collaborating to develop their own ultra mixture proportions and to implement the technology.

Gilbane Building Co. is deploying a new wearable tag from Triax Technologies that alerts workers when they are violating social distancing rules on jobsites and provides contact tracing information if someone becomes sick with COVID-19.

Preparing multiple potential designs around narrow requirements is seen as some of the most tedious work in design and engineering. But some of that effort can now be automated with the new generative design scripting built into Autodesk Revit 2021.

Building on or near wetlands and other environmentally sensitive areas is a known challenge in construction. But a new app seeks to automate much of the wetlands evaluation process and then instantly populate the relevant forms and documentation.
