New joint R&D project for AIA lab

Published on March 12, 2024 Updated on April 4, 2024

The AIA research team (under the supervision of Pr. S. Ben Rajeb) has obtained an Innoviris funding for a Research and Development project named HARPO. The objective of HARPO (Human-centered Application for the Resource and Productivity Optimization of buildings) is to develop an innovative software solution based on BIM models to improve the construction site productivity. This would enable the various site players to integrate site execution data directly into the virtual model of the building, in order to better manage the work of teams and optimize execution processes on site. The project is a collaboration between the construction company CIT Blaton, the start-up Kabandy developing BIM technologies, and the two research teams Buildwise and ULB BATir.
