Pioneer of Intelligent Construction - Intelligent Compaction
Description
This book provides a background in engineering applications and presents a holistic and practical case of intelligent construction-intelligent compaction. From the perspective of the fundamental characteristics of intelligent construction, namely "perception, analysis, decision-making, execution," this book systematically introduces intelligent compaction technology used in infrastructure construction, including basic knowledge of compaction, fundamental theories of intelligent compaction, quality control indicators and elements, key points for field implementation, and the expanded applications of intelligent compaction technology. Through this book, readers will gain a firsthand understanding of the benefits that intelligent construction brings to the improved quality of engineering projects and become familiar with the basic steps and implementation methods of intelligent construction. This book is grounded in a perspective that can be understood by civil engineering professionals, using clear and accessible words to comprehensively introduce the entire process of intelligent compaction, illustrated with images and text to reflect the overall picture of smart construction. This book is suitable for technical personnel working in related infrastructure construction fields, such as roads, railways, airports, and urban roads, who want to learn, understand, and master new and innovative intelligent construction technologies. It can also serve as a reference for students in related fields.
The basis of the English translation of this book, originally in Chinese, was facilitated by artificial intelligence. The content was later revised by the author for accuracy.

Persons
Prof. Guanghui Xu, Ph.D., has worked in railway design and research institutes in the early days. He later joined Harbin Institute of Technology and other universities to engage in scientific research and teaching. His research interests include road and railway engineering dynamics theory, testing and information analysis technology, and intelligent technology applications. Prof. Xu is the co-founder of the International Society for Intelligent Construction (ISIC). He has consistently adhered to the principle of paying equal attention to theoretical and applied research, as well as practical results. He has organized and led a multidisciplinary scientific research team, and carried out long-term, independent research and development of intelligent construction monitoring technology. Prof. Xu also produced a series of research results with intellectual property rights. In 2011 and 2017, he oversaw the development of China's first industry construction standards and product standards for intelligent compaction (IC) technology.
Prof. Dongsheng Wang, Ph.D., is a Road and Railway Engineering Department professor at Harbin Institute of Technology, China. Prof. Wang is also an ISIC Steering Committee member and a member of the Heilongjiang Youth Federation. His primary research areas include pavement mechanics, structural design theory, pavement materials, and constitutive models. He has led over nine projects, including those funded by the National Natural Science Foundation of China, and won the second prize of the Jilin Province Science and Technology Progress Award and the first prize of the China Highway Society Science and Technology Award. Prof. Wang has participated in the compilation of many industry standards. He was selected into the Harbin Institute of Technology's top-notch teaching talents program.
Dr. George Chang is a world expert on pavement smoothness and intelligent compaction/construction technologies. Dr. Chang has founded ISIC (www.IS-IC.org). His research, teaching, specification development, and software tools have helped make significant technological advancements in the above fields. The websites he develops and maintains, Profile Viewing and Analysis-ProVAL (www.RoadProfile.com) and Intelligent Construction Technologies (www.IntelligentConstruction.com), have evolved into the one-stop shop for pavement smoothness and intelligent compaction/construction. He has been leading the International Roughness Index (IRI) US national deployment effort with ProVAL and intelligent compaction with Veta since 2001 and 2007, respectively.
