Minisymposium at 19th INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON COMPUTING IN CIVIL & BUILDING ENGINEERING (ICCCBE2022) – Cape Town, South Africa, 26 – 28 October 2022

The title of the Minisymposium 510 is “Digital Twin Construction”. It is organized by Dr. Rafael Sacks and his research team from Technion-Israel Institute of Technology, partner of the BIM2TWIN consortium.

The aim of the Mini-symposium MS20 is to attract papers presenting new findings in the field of building information modeling and digital twin technology; simulation and process modeling; big data, sensing, and machine learning; built environment monitoring; control, analysis, and design; Information and communication technologies; project design, construction, planning, and management; reality capture technologies and robotics, automation, and control.

Some of the topics that will be discussed are (not exhaustive list):

  • Methods for data acquisition on site
  • Merging and interpreting monitoring data to provide helpful project status information (PSI)
  • Algorithms for processing raw monitored data
  • Comparison of intent information (project design and process plan) with status information (as-built and as-performed information) to formulate actionable knowledge
  • Simulation, prediction, and optimization of expected project performance
  • Delivering project intent information to actors in a construction project
