Areas of Emphasis

Faculty and students in the Construction Systems Program conduct research at the forefront of:

  • Automation and Digital Twins
  • Mobile Sensing and Control Theory
  • Smart Cities and Intelligent Infrastructure
  • Project Production Systems and Lean Construction

Research Project Examples

  • Data-driven production planning and control using work density for on-site building construction
  • Exploration of opportunities to reduce lead times for engineered-to-order products
  • Distributed planning and coordination to support lean construction
  • Process-based cost modeling to support target value design
  • Product-process development simulation to support specialty contractor involvement in design
  • Exploring decision-making methods for sustainable design in commercial buildings

Faculty

Students interested in research and conducting an independent study (CIVENG 299) should reach out and make arrangements with an individual faculty member. The Construction Systems curriculum is taught by these UC Berkeley Senate Faculty:
