Generative AI Application for Building Industry
<|reference_start|>Generative AI Application for Building Industry: This paper investigates the transformative potential of generative AI technologies, particularly large language models (LLMs), within the building industry. By leveraging these advanced AI tools, the study explores their application across key areas such as energy code compliance, building design optimization, and workforce training. The research highlights how LLMs can automate labor-intensive processes, significantly improving efficiency, accuracy, and safety in building practices. The paper also addresses the challenges associated with interpreting complex visual and textual data in architectural plans and regulatory codes, proposing innovative solutions to enhance AI-driven compliance checking and design processes. Additionally, the study considers the broader implications of AI integration, including the development of AI-powered tools for comprehensive code compliance across various regulatory domains and the potential for AI to revolutionize workforce training through realistic simulations. This paper provides a comprehensive analysis of the current capabilities of generative AI in the building industry while outlining future directions for research and development, aiming to pave the way for smarter, more sustainable, and responsive construction practices.<|reference_end|>
