Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The growing complexity and scale of construction projects are driving the need for more intelligent, adaptive, and data-driven approaches to project management. In this context, artificial intelligence (AI) has emerged as a powerful tool for innovation across the entire lifecycle of construction, from early-stage planning and design to on-site execution and post-construction operations and maintenance. AI technologies are being actively applied to enhance safety, productivity, quality control, and risk management, offering new opportunities to improve efficiency and resilience across diverse project environments. As these technologies begin to influence real-world construction practices, it becomes increasingly important to examine not only their technical capabilities, but also their practical applications, limitations, and implications for the future of construction management. This Special Issue seeks to bring together cutting-edge research and applied studies that demonstrate how AI can be meaningfully integrated into construction workflows to address industry challenges and improve project outcomes. We invite contributions that critically explore the transformative potential of AI in construction management; these submissions will contribute to shaping the next generation of intelligent and adaptive construction practices.
