São Paulo, Brazil — LeapThought’s Vice President of Computational Engineering, Leonardo Machado, will be sharing his groundbreaking insights on the application of artificial intelligence (AI) in the construction industry at the 7th International Congress: The BIM Era. This significant event, organized by SINAENCO, will be held in São Paulo and is expected to draw leading experts and innovators in the Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) sectors.
Machado, an authority in computational geometry and design computation, leads LeapThought’s efforts to bridge the gap between computer science and civil engineering. His presentation will center on the transformative impact of machine intelligence in automating model and quality checks, a topic that has significant implications for construction efficiency and compliance.
Specifically, Machado will discuss LeapThought’s automated model checker, a state-of-the-art solution implemented in Singapore’s innovative CORENET X regulatory framework. Designed to meet stringent international standards, this tool automates the validation of building models, ensuring projects are both compliant and efficient. He'll share how AI-driven quality checks are a step change from traditional construction workflows and are setting a new benchmark for precision and effectiveness.
“The use of AI in model checking is not just about speeding up processes but about enhancing the overall quality and reliability of construction projects,” Machado said. “It’s a paradigm shift in how we approach design and compliance, making data-driven decision-making more accessible and effective.”
According to event organizer SINAENCO, Machado will also touch on the broader integration of AI in BIM (Building Information Modeling) and its future applications in creating smarter, more sustainable infrastructure. His session promises to provide invaluable insights for AEC professionals eager to leverage the potential of computational technologies.
