Employees of the Civil Engineering Institute participated in the Nevsky Construction Forum 2025. The event is a key platform for discussing current issues related to the development of the construction industry and the digitalization of urban planning.
The Civil Engineering Institute was represented by Marina Petrochenko, Director of the Institute of Civil Engineering, Yegor Melekhin, Assistant Professor at the Higher School of Industrial, Civil, and Road Construction, and Elena Chegotova, Senior Lecturer at the Higher School of Industrial, Civil, and Road Construction and an expert in urban planning legislation, technical regulation, and digitalization in construction.
Marina Petrochenko spoke at a Smart Dialogue dedicated to the topic of regulatory requirements registries. In her speech, she emphasized the importance of the country's technological leadership in various industries and the need to improve the Federal State Information System for Labor Protection and the Construction Complex as tools for achieving this goal and addressing industry challenges. She noted that current requirements registries are one-dimensional systems based on text data from regulatory documents. However, the future lies in multimodal data management models that will enable the use of artificial intelligence to analyze evidence in various formats: text, photos, videos, audio, and sensor data.
Egor Melekhin actively participated in the Smart Cases case conference, where participants shared experiences, analyzed successful and unsuccessful practices, and identified the best solutions to pressing problems in the construction industry. In his presentation, he emphasized the need to optimize design processes, such as the classification of information model elements. He presented the development of the software product "IMPULSE," which automates the process of classifying building information model elements. The program uses artificial intelligence and machine learning technologies, achieving forecasting accuracy of up to 97%. Egor Melekhin emphasized that AI is not only popular language models or image generation, but also a powerful tool for analyzing various types of data. The ISI team is currently working to improve the program's mechanism and promote the use of AI to optimize construction tasks.
Elena Chegotova actively participated in the forum on both the first and second days as an expert, making a significant contribution to the discussion of digitalization and regulatory issues in construction.
The forum concluded with a Smart Visit for the delegation to the Civil Engineering Institute. Forum guests were given a tour of MetaCampus, where they were able to learn about the Institute's developments. Participants also visited the Additive Technologies and 3D Printing training laboratory, where they saw cutting-edge construction technologies firsthand.
We are pleased to participate in such a large-scale event as the Nevsky Construction Forum 2025. We believe it is important not only to highlight Polytechnic University's achievements but also to demonstrate them in the laboratories of the Civil Engineering Institute. This allows us not only to share experience but also to demonstrate the real-world application of our developments, which are already changing approaches to solving problems in the construction industry. Today, requirements registers work exclusively with text data. However, the evidence base in construction is inherently multimodal. Once we transition to multimodal AI models, the verification of digital information models will not only be automated but also much more reliable. "Polytechnic MetaCampus" can become the first experimental platform for testing such solutions," noted Marina Petrochenko.
