• 1 Also, construction industry is one the least digitized industries in the world, which has made it difficult for it to tackle the problems it currently faces.
• 2 An advanced digital technology, Artificial Intelligence (AI), is currently revolutionising industries such as manufacturing, retail, and telecommunications.
• 3 The subfields of AI such as machine learning, knowledge-based systems, computer vision, robotics and optimisation have successfully been applied in other industries to achieve increased profitability, efficiency, safety and security.

This research advances how AI systems learn, reason, and solve problems — with direct implications for automation and scientific discovery.
