Track: Artificial Intelligence

Abstract

Even the green concept precisely addresses the environmental unfriendliness in the construction industry, its adaptation still has barriers and issues. Green buildings have often involved the implementation of different success factors by construction professionals such as designers, project managers, contractors and quantity surveyors in order to overcome the difficulties and to ensure success in the delivery of green buildings. For instance, integration in the project delivery process enables the project participants to interact seamlessly to achieve better sustainable outcomes. Greater communication among project participants, particularly through multiple communication means contribute to success in the delivery of green buildings. It is found that various techniques of Artificial Intelligence have effectively contributed to the modernising of the construction industry through more reliable, automated, self-modifying, time-saving, and cost-effective process in construction management. Hence, this paper intends to bring in literature synthesis addressing applicability of Artificial Intelligence techniques to enhance green construction through overcoming the barriers and issues in communication within green construction. Ultimately a conceptual framework is developed to understand the applicability of the AI in communication in green construction.
