A new perspective in construction management; the metaverse

https://doi.org/10.7764/RDLC.22.2.321Keywords:
Artificial intelligence, neural networks, fuzzy logic, CPM, PERT.Abstract
A conceptual construction management model can be applied to the metaverse 3D technology in this study, which demonstrates how accelerated back-and-forth replays of the construction process can be used to evaluate the impact of new decisions on the project. Participants in the proposed model will be able to see exactly how their decisions during construction affect the progress of the project. In order to develop this model, three phases are required: 1) Analyzing the problem and planning the algorithm, 2) collecting data and designing the hybrid model utilizing artificial intelligence and construction network scheduling techniques, and 3) coding the algorithm. The design-based research will contribute to the development of new meta-models for construction management, present innovative ideas for students, engineers, and managers working in the field of construction management.
