Application of Large Language Models in the AECO Industry: Core Technologies, Application Scenarios, and Research Challenges
As projects in the architecture, engineering, construction, and operations (AECO) industry grow in complexity and scale, there is an urgent need for more effective information management and intelligent decision-making. This study investigates the potential of large language models (LLMs) to address these challenges by systematically reviewing their core technologies, application scenarios, and integration approaches in AECO. Using a literature-based review methodology, this paper examines how LLMs—built on Transformer architecture and powered by deep learning and natural language processing—can process complex unstructured data and support a wide range of tasks, including contract analysis, construction scheduling, risk assessment, and operations and maintenance. This study finds that while LLMs offer substantial promise for enhancing productivity and automation in AECO workflows, several obstacles remain, such as data quality issues, computational demands, limited adaptability, integration barriers, and ethical concerns. The paper concludes that future research should focus on improving model efficiency, enabling multimodal data fusion, and enhancing compatibility with existing industry tools to realize the full potential of LLMs and support the digital transformation of the AECO sector.
