Abstract
Due to the impact of modern information technology, the construction of transportation infrastructure has entered the “Intelligent Era.” The conventional construction technology is also undergoing a paradigm shift. In this paper, the term “intelligent construction” is defined, and the status quo of global transportation infrastructure construction with emerging intelligent construction technologies is summarized. The framework of intelligent construction is presented on all aspects of the integration of modern information technology and the conventional highway technologies. The essential elements of intelligent construction include sensing, analysis, decision-making, and execution. Big data, machine learning, and expert system are applied to provide practical technical solutions for intelligent construction. This paper also elaborates on the process of intelligent decision-making and auto-feedback machine controls. Finally, the future development of intelligent construction is laid out. The globally coordinated efforts by the International Society for Intelligent Construction (ISIC) will help the leading development and implementation of intelligent construction into the future.
