Smart Construction Lab at Ajou University
The Smart Construction Lab (SCL) at Ajou University aims to understand and manage the dynamicity and complexity of construction projects through advanced technologies such as wearables, sensors, data analytics, computer simulations, and automation. Particularly, SCL is interested in understanding how humans in construction perceive, interact with, make decisions, and behave in construction projects and finding a better way to design, construct, operate, and maintain facilities. If you have an interest in working with SCL, please contact the Director, Prof. Byungjoo Choi (bchoi@ajou.ac.kr).
