Construction projects are making use of modern information technology methods such as big data and artificial intelligence to improve project construction. The Xiluodu Hydropower Project is a pioneer application of intelligent construction methods for high arch dams. However, the rapid advances in information, sensing and data processing methods require further development of intelligent dam construction methods. Intelligent dam construction methods are introduced here as applied to the Baihetan Hydropower Project, a 300-meter ultra-high arch dam, with extensive monitoring measurements, real analyses, intelligent decision making and feedback control. This paper describes the intelligent construction system and its implementation with a focus on key construction processes and business processes including whole-process concrete placement monitoring, concrete leveling and vibrating monitoring, intelligent water-cooling, intelligent spraying and intelligent grouting. This paper then further describes the close-loop control of these intelligent methods and their functions.
