POSCO E&C has developed a technology utilizing artificial intelligence (AI) to reduce quality variations in ready-mix concrete.
POSCO E&C announced on the 7th that it has developed an 'AI-based ready-mix concrete quality prediction and production automation technology' in collaboration with software development company SHLab to produce ready-mix concrete of uniform quality.
Ready-mix concrete has characteristics that make it difficult to maintain uniform quality, even if legal standards are met, due to factors such as the producer's skill level, material properties, and temperature. POSCO E&C has developed a technology that analyzes video of the ready-mix concrete being mixed and automatically adjusts the mixing ratio according to the state of the mixture using AI. The compressive strength, which previously required a 28-day wait after pouring the concrete, can now be predicted in advance by AI analyzing the mixing state and blending data.
With this technological development, POSCO E&C has established a smart management system for the entire process, from the production of ready-mix concrete to transportation, receipt and inspection, construction, and curing.
