This blog is a space for ideas that haven’t been fully explored yet — questions and themes that deserve more attention in construction and engineering. Rather than providing fully developed research, the content here points toward areas that researchers, students, innovators, and investors might want to explore further. The posts are not final answers. They’re conversation starters, designed to spotlight emerging trends and under-researched topics. If you’re working on a thesis, building a startup, writing a grant, or simply curious about what’s next in the industry, you’ll find useful direction here.
Some of the topics explored here include:
- Digital Transformation in Construction How technologies like AI, digital twins, drones, and smart sensors are starting to influence how construction teams plan, monitor, and deliver projects — not just on paper, but in real time.
- BIM and GIS in Practice An ongoing look at how Building Information Modelling and GIS are being used together to make planning smarter, reduce waste, and support more sustainable building practices.
- Sustainable and Resilient Construction From climate-ready infrastructure to net-zero buildings and blockchain in asset tracking, this section touches on practical ideas that could help build a more resilient future.
- The Changing Face of Engineering We cover how automation, robotics, and transport innovations like high-speed rail are shaping the future of global infrastructure — and where those trends might be heading next.
- People, Skills, and Collaboration Technology matters, but people matter more. Here we talk about leadership, communication, and the skills that help teams work better together in a rapidly evolving industry. If you’re researching, building, or just curious about what’s coming next, this blog offers a place to explore — and maybe even spark a few ideas of your own.
