AI in Construction Certification

Learn to use AI to analyse Construction contracts & highlight risks

• Project Managers have to spin many plates and know everything about their project all at once.
• This can sometimes be more than is humanely possible, leading to stress and burnout.
• We explain how AI can help you flag issues to the surface without you getting lost in the detail.
• In this course we will show you how you can both customise no code tools and develop your own with simple Python scripts.
• We will show you how to build and use an AI for analysing construction contracts, creating a table of the risky clauses which have been identified, along with page numbers, even drafting you a renegotiation email
• This will be an example application to show and inspire you how straightforward it is to use AI to help you derisk your project

Learn to use AI to redesign buildings from photos + prompts

• Architects need to bring the creativity and the design spark to a project thinking through thousands of interlinked factors and avoiding pitfalls.
• Visualising and testing your ideas can be time consuming and costly and the number of ideas you can test is linked to the overall success of your project.
• We explain how AI can help you experiment with different design styles and finishes without needing manual effort.
• In this course we will show you how you can both customise no code tools and develop your own with simple Python scripts.
• We will show you how to build and use an AI for restyling the interior and exterior of buildings using diffusion models.
• This will be an example application which can be further iterated on to improve resemblance.

Learn to use AI to automatically create take-offs from CAD PDFs

• Estimators are needed on every project need to win the work and price jobs accurately, they also need to outperform their competition to win the work.
• Unfortunately estimators also need to do lots of repetitive counting, measuring and quantifying.
• Forunately vision intelligence AI can give estimators a great advantage over their competitors, not only speeding up the estimating process but improving accuracy.
• In this course we will show you how you can both customise no code tools and develop your own with simple Python scripts.
• We will show you how to build and use an AI for creating Excel bill of quantities and material take offs directly from PDF CAD Drawings.
• This will be an example application which can be further iterated on to further categorise and organise the data being extracted.

Learn to use AI to automatically find design details from CAD PDFs

• CAD Managers are the gatekeepers for the most key details in the company, the CAD drawings and BIM models.
• Unfortunately drawings are constantly being changed, details get lost and it can be impossible to find key information from past projects.
• AI can help CAD Managers organise their entire repository of CAD Drawings, read or add metadata and enable details to be easily reused.
• In this course we will show you how you can both customise no code tools and develop your own with simple Python scripts.
• We will show you how to use Civils.ai to automatically organise your companies PDF CAD Drawing archive.
• We will also show you how to build an example AI application to read and extract quantities from CAD Drawings which can be further adapted to collect different types of data automatically from PDF drawings.
