About

Somayeh Asadi is a leading researcher at the forefront of construction automation, specializing in the critical intersection of Building Information Modeling (BIM) and robotic construction. Her work directly addresses one of the industry’s most pressing challenges: bridging the gap between digital design and physical automation. Asadi’s major contribution lies in developing parametric modeling frameworks that enable robots to accurately interpret and execute design information from BIM models, particularly for complex tasks like masonry wall assembly. Her most cited paper, “Automation and Robotics in the Architecture, Engineering, and Construction Industry” (2022), has garnered 43 citations, establishing her as a key voice in the field. She has also published foundational work on information exchange protocols for BIM-to-robotic construction and continues to refine computational modeling methods that enhance the data richness of BIM for automated fabrication. By tackling the fundamental information requirements for Industry 4.0 integration, Asadi is helping to transform the traditionally slow-to-adapt construction sector into a technologically advanced, automated industry.
