    "The Key Technologies and Applications of Super-Large Engineering Virtual Construction based on BIM and Artificial Intelligence" won the second prize of the 2021 Shanghai Society of Civil Engineering Society Science and Technology Progress Award.

    Through the introduction of artificial intelligence (AI), hybrid reality (MR), knowledge base and other technologies, the project broke through the super-large engineering construction BIM model rapid construction and audit, construction simulation and analysis and other core technologies. The project developed a construction management system that supports the use of BIM on construction sites. The results of the project have been expert appraisal and scientific and technological research to reach the international advanced level. The results have been successfully applied to super-large projects such as Shanghai Disney, Shanghai International Convention and Exhibition Center and Shanghai International Financial Center, and have achieved remarkable economic and social benefits.
