Construction Industry Council - Annual Report 2024

CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY COUNCIL 174 OUR SUSTAINABILITY JOURNEY Navigating the Digitalisation Path Guidance and Reference Materials To catalyse widespread industry transformation and align with the Government’s initiatives, we released key reference materials in 2024, including CIC Beginner’s Guide on Construction Digitalisation – Cybersecurity, Reference Materials of BIM Harmonisation for Digital Hong Kong and Reference Materials on BIM for Asset and Facility Management. Left to Right: CIC Beginner’s Guide on Construction Digitalisation – Cybersecurity, Reference Materials of BIM Harmonisation for Digital Hong Kong, Reference Materials on BIM for Asset Management and Facility Management Professional Knowledge Hub Through the integration of these four centres – the Construction Innovation and Technology Application Centre, the Digital Twin Hub, the MiC Resources Centre, and the CIC-ZCP – we continue to lead the industry in innovation and sustainability, connecting stakeholders, providing access to cutting-edge technologies, and fostering knowledge exchange. The iHub guided tour connecting these four exhibition centres was introduced in 2021. In 2024, over 500 tours with more than 10,000 visitors were conducted. Global Construction Robotic Day We also hosted the Global Construction Robotic Day on 7 and 8 May 2024, highlighting the vital role of robotics in more innovative, safer, and more sustainable construction practices. This two-day event featured a global conference, a technology pitching session, and a Construction Robot Exhibition, which showcased 24 state-of-the-art construction robots for tasks such as measurement, floor grinding, demolition, and facade cleaning. Attendees gained valuable insights into the latest advancements in robotics and explored practical applications for integrating these technologies into their operations to enhance efficiency and safety across the construction stage. 8,000+ Participants in the exhibition 35 Renowned robotic experts for the conference CIC R&D Conference 2024 Additionally, we hosted CIC R&D Conference on 12 December 2024. Three research teams were invited to share their latest results and practical cases in innovative building materials, construction digitalisation and smart geotechnical identification. This sharing lets participants understand the effectiveness and benefits of the application of new construction materials and technologies. 1,400+ Participants
