Research Projects

Collaborate with us on research in AI-assisted design, construction informatics, and infrastructure monitoring. We offer three ways to work together.

Collaboration Models

We Lead

Our group leads the research plan and funding applications, seeking support through programs such as NSERC Alliance and Mitacs Accelerate alongside industry cash and in-kind contributions. Industry cash contributions can typically be matched at 1:1 or 1:2. Industry also contributes expertise, data, and project support in kind.
