Construction LAB 5.0: Digital tools to enhance construction sites, focusing on improved productivity, health, and safety (CoLAB 5.0)
Research Project, 2026
The CoLAB 5.0 investigates how integrating technological innovation, ethical digital practices, Human-Data Interaction (HDI) principles, and education within Electronic Performance Monitoring (EPM) can enhance acceptance and effective implementation of Construction 5.0 technologies in Chile, positioning the country as a Latin American leader in this transition. The project leader is placed at Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile, with Chalmers being among the international partners forming the project's consortium.
