Abstract:

Against the backdrop of the national strategy for transformation of the traditional constructionindustry towards intelligence and informatization, research related to intelligent construction has beenthriving. the intelligent management of construction materials is a key component for intelligentconstruction. To systematically understand the current research status of intelligent management forconstruction materials both domestically and internationally, a total of 206 Chinese articles and 116English articles published in the past 15 years were retrieved from the China National KnowledgeInfrastructure （CNKI） and Web of Science （WoS） databases, respectively. CiteSpace software was usedto analyze the number of publications, journals, keyword co⁃occurrence, keyword clustering, andkeyword burst detection. The results show that, international research has a longer history and broaderscope,with universities as the main research entities, and research hotspots focus on advancedmethodologies for material quality control, intelligent supply chain management and new technologies, suchas visual perception and deep learning,while domestic research hotspots are relatively dispersed,withenterprises as the main research entities, and research hotspots focus on specific problems encountered incurrent practices. With the continuous enrichment of theories related to intelligent construction and therapid development of intelligent technologies and equipment, the full lifecycle intelligent management andcontrol of construction materials may become a future research focus and trend.
