Event Information
This presentation explores how automation in construction technology drives efficiency, accuracy, and compliance in infrastructure projects. By automating tasks such as geometry design and drawing audits based on DOT standards, manual effort is significantly reduced, adherence to regulatory standards is ensured, and project workflows are accelerated. Participants will see how automation translates into real-world benefits—saving time and costs while minimizing human error. The session will feature live examples covering:
Horizontal and Vertical Alignment Compliance
Drawing Standards Auditing
DOT Reviews for Signalized Approach Maintenance of Traffic
ADA Ramp Compliance Checks
Pipe Network Asset Management
These examples will demonstrate how AI-powered analysis can be transformed into actionable insights that enhance decision-making and execution in infrastructure projects.
