Road trips have a way of revealing how quickly a landscape can change. One moment you’re winding through quiet marshes and coastal farmland. A few minutes later, the highway carries you into growing cities, busy downtowns, and communities preparing for the next wave of growth.  Our next stretch of highway follows the Atlantic Coast, beginning in the quiet corners of southern Delaware before rolling through the Carolinas into Florida. Along the way, the scenery shifts from tidal waterways and historic waterfront towns to booming business centers and some of the country’s fastest-growing transportation corridors. Every stop brings a different story, but they all share something in common. They’re all places planning not just for today, but for decades to come.  The engineers, marketers, and leaders we’ll meet along this leg of the journey are leading the charge. They’re strengthening the infrastr...

55-acre Colorado development will include 106 residences, demonstrating how 3D-printing technology can be deployed at community scale SALIDA, CO –  Construction is advancing at  Cleora , a 55-acre residential development in Salida, Colorado that is expected to become one of the world’s largest planned 3D-printed residential communities that is also its own metro district. With infrastructure complete, seven homes already constructed, multiple homes sold and additional homes under construction, the project is moving from concept to reality as developers seek to establish a scalable model for future housing communities. While many 3D-printed housing initiatives have focused on individual homes or small pilot projects, Cleora was designed to test the technology at community scale. Developed by Cleora in partnership with True North, its dedicated 3D-printing general contractor, the project is intended to serve as a blueprint for how advanced construction technol...

New capability closes a long-standing visibility gap in early construction, giving teams a more complete picture of progress and risks. Buildots , the global construction intelligence platform, today announced the launch of superstructure tracking. Following more than a year of refinement with beta customers across live construction projects, the new capability extends Buildots’ AI-driven analysis to the structural phase. This allows construction teams to track site progress across more of the project lifecycle in the same platform.  Until now, tracking superstructure has often meant physically walking the floor. This approach leaves large portions of a site untracked, whether due to safety restrictions, accessibility constraints, or simply the structure’s scale. The phase has effectively been managed without objective data, at exactly the point when critical structural decisions are being made. New Buildots superstructure tracking addresses this challenge by pro...
