We are working with several publishers to roll out ICT books. The current one is “Intelligent Construction Technologies for Transport Infrastructure – A Book Series” that includes the following titles:
- Introduction to Intelligent Construction Technologies for Transport Infrastructure (English and Chinese editions published by Springer Nature and Tiedao Publication Company in 2022 and 2020, respectively).
- Pioneer of Intelligent Construction: Intelligent Compaction (English and Chinese editions published by Springer Nature and Tiedao Publication Company in January 2026 and August 2025, respectively).
- The Foundation of Sensing Methods: One-Dimensional Dynamics and Applications in Engineering
- The Foundation of Machine Analysis and Decision-Making: A Journey into Machine Learning
- A Powerful Tool for Engineering Quality: Sensing and Data
- The Assistant for Execution: Control Technology in Engineering
Book no. 1 – Introduction to Intelligent Construction Technologies for Transport Infrastructure
Abstract: This book discusses technologies for the construction of intelligent transportation infrastructure. Based on the essential characteristics of intelligent construction, “perception, analysis, decision-making, and execution,” the basic structure of intelligent construction technology (ICT) is established. With the integration of engineering construction technologies, the analyses of the essence of intelligent algorithms and the feasibility of Artificial Intelligence (AI) are provided. The book introduces the essential characteristics of Big Data and the Internet of Things and their relationship with engineering construction. On this basis, the feasibility and implementation plan of intelligent technology applications in design, construction, and maintenance are analyzed and demonstrated with engineering examples. The book also combines ICT with intelligent construction talent training, the professional knowledge required for intelligent construction, and the theoretical basis to provide the methods for mastering new technologies. This book can be used by technical personnel in related fields such as highways, railways, airports, and urban road construction to understand and master innovative, intelligent construction technologies. It can also be a reference book for ICT-related college courses.
- The copies are available for purchase in softcover, hardcover, and eBook (PDF and ePub).
- Download the front matter in PDF.
Book no. 2 – Pioneer of Intelligent Construction – Intelligent Compaction
Abstract: Intelligent compaction (IC) is a cutting-edge technology in the construction of “filler-type” projects such as highways, railways, airports, and urban roads. It is hailed as the fourth revolution in “road construction technology” and a pioneer in intelligent construction. This book, structured around the fundamental characteristics of intelligent construction—”sensing, analyzing, decision-making, and executing”—provides a concise yet systematic explanation of the basic concepts, mechanical principles, testing techniques, intelligent models, control technologies, control elements, and implementation steps of intelligent compaction. It also includes practical engineering application examples. Building on this foundation, the book explores several extended applications of intelligent compaction and addresses frequently asked questions in the appendix. Richly illustrated and written in accessible language, this book is suitable for technical professionals in the fields of highways, railways, airports, and construction machinery, as well as students in related disciplines for study and reference.
- The copies are available for pre-order in hardcover only.
- See the full PR document for further details.
We will conduct a series of webinars on the book series. We will also develop practical workshop materials and university curricula following the publication of the ICT book series to help agencies, industry, and colleges/universities prepare the current and future ICT workforce.
