This book mainly expounds on the related technologies of intelligent construction of reclaimed transportation infrastructure. Taking the essential characteristics of intelligent construction perception, analysis, decision-making, and execution as clues, the basic structure of intelligent construction technology (ICT) is established. With the combination of engineering construction, the analyses of the essence of intelligent algorithms and the feasibility of machines replacing human work are provided. The book introduces the basic 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 analysed, and engineering examples are given. The book also combines ICT with intelligent construction talent training, sorting out the professional knowledge required for intelligent construction and the theoretical basis, and provides the methods for mastering new technologies. This book can be used by technical personnel in related fields such as highways, railways, airports, and urban roads to understand, learn and master new technologies of intelligent construction, and can also be used as a teaching reference book for relevant majors in intelligent construction.
