Artificial intelligence is beginning to reshape the way engineers create, review, coordinate, and issue construction documents. In the near term, AI will not replace the professional engineer’s judgment, responsible charge, or duty of care. However, it will fundamentally change how Quality Assurance and Quality Control are performed by making document review faster, more systematic, more traceable, and more capable of identifying omissions, inconsistencies, conflicts, and constructability concerns before they become problems. ~ Bill Riehl, PhD, JD, PE Senior Principal Scientist Owens Corning |
