Trending Technological Gazing & Predictions in AEC

2023 has kick-started with digital innovation in many industries, and the AEC industry reflects the continued intersection of this digital transformation in the built world. The Digital Revolution is gaining momentum in the AEC sector by introducing advanced technologies and techniques and improvising how we design, construct and renovate the built structures.

Considering CAD and BIM services that have completely reshaped the industry with improved efficiency in the traditional designing and drafting process, there has been the introduction of many other tools and technology for scanning, surveying, mapping, modeling, and manufacturing. It is difficult to jot down everything among many, but a few major AEC trends can be embraced in 2023.

Automation, AI, Sustainability and Information Play Vital Roles for AEC in 2023

Luc Wing

As we enter 2023, the architecture, engineering, construction, and manufacturing (AEC+MFG) industries are undergoing significant changes as they adopt new technologies and practices to improve efficiency, reduce costs, and meet the increasing demand for sustainable buildings and products. The three key trends driving these changes are automation and artificial intelligence (AI), sustainability, and the realization of the “I” in Building Information Modeling (BIM).

Companies are looking for ways to optimize processes, eliminate manual and labor-intensive tasks, improve data precision, and increase control over the project delivery lifecycle. Automation and AI are growing best practices in AEC to help meet those objectives. The adoption of automation technologies can bring benefits ranging from cost savings and improved quality to greater accuracy and increased competitiveness in the global market. Development of automation tools that are usable and “out-of-the-box” create advantages over software that requires specialized knowledge to create and utilize them. With easily understood automation tools, everyday users will have simplified access to software applications and other technologies that allow them to take advantage of the automation’s capabilities. Ultimately, automation technologies have the potential to revolutionize the way buildings, products, and systems are designed, built, and maintained, bringing significant benefits to businesses and consumers alike.
