“With AI Towards Sustainable Building Structures” is an insightful exploration of how state of the art AI techniques can be integrated into the building industry to support a more sustainable future. The book avoids bold predictions and focuses on helping readers form their own judgments through clear explanations of AI fundamentals and an overview of industry workflows and environmental impacts. It also draws on personal experience and includes interviews with leading experts in AI and the building sector. The book therefore serves as a practical foundation for practitioners and companies implementing AI and for curious readers outside the building industry who want to understand how AI’s evolution can benefit society.
