Abstract

This paper investigates the diverse applications of Large Language Models (LLMs) in the construction industry, emphasizing their transformative role in supporting human decision-making, enhancing efficiency, and improving accuracy in various tasks. The study explores LLMs' capabilities in key areas such as document analysis and quality control, data processing and information retrieval, content creation and management, and the development of interactive and customized systems. Through real-world examples, we illustrate how LLMs are driving innovation and progress in construction. These applications showcase LLMs' effectiveness in elevating operational efficiency, from nuanced document analysis to the advancement of interactive system development, fundamentally transforming the approach to construction management.
