Digital Construction Management (DCM) builds on emerging and existing technologies and techniques to enhance safety, efficiency, and effectiveness of highway construction. Transportation agencies looking to deploy DCM have partners and resources for success. TRB hosted a webinar on Thursday, August 29, 2024 from 12:00 PM to 1:30 PM Eastern that shared proven DCM configurations and organizational characteristics that demonstrate institutional readiness to adopt and implement DCM.
This webinar featured research from NCHRP Domestic Scan 22-02: Experiences in the Use of Digital Construction Management in the Highway Industry.
This webinar was sponsored by TRB’s National Cooperative Highway Research Program and the Standing Technical Committees on Visualization in Transportation and Geospatial Data Acquisition Technologies.
