Recent Advances in Intelligent Infrastructure and Construction Engineering

Dear Colleagues,

Emerging technologies, such as digital twins, computer vision, natural language processing, the Internet of Things, and blockchain, have been driving transformative changes in the infrastructure and construction engineering industry. Within this landscape, the advent of intelligent construction has become increasingly significant, addressing the limitations of traditional construction methods such as time-consuming processes and labour-intensive tasks. As intelligent construction enters a phase of rapid growth, it brings forth numerous opportunities, accompanied by significant challenges that demand further breakthroughs.

In this Special Issue entitled “Recent Advances in Intelligent Infrastructure and Construction Engineering”, we encourage researchers and scholars to share their recent research results related to smart construction. The main topics covered by this Special Issue include, but are not limited to, the following:

• Civil structural safety and health monitoring;
• Intelligence application in construction;
• Four-dimensional BIM and construction simulation;
• Civil engineering advancements;
• Construction robots;
• Blockchain application in civil engineering;
• Construction environment perception;
• Computer simulation
• Health and safety monitoring and measuring;
• Measurement and risk warning.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Buildings is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
