《建筑自动化》是一本发表原始研究论文的国际期刊。该杂志发表了与信息技术在设计、工程、施工技术以及已建设施维护和管理中的使用有关的所有方面的参考资料。施工自动化的范围很广，包括施工生命周期的所有阶段，从最初的规划和设计到设施的建设、运行和维护，到建筑物和工程结构的最终拆除和回收。以下主题列表并非详尽无遗，而是表明属于本杂志职权范围内的主题：?计算机辅助设计、产品建模、决策支持系统、分类和标准化、产品数据交换?计算机辅助工程、过程模拟模型、图形?机器人、计量、后勤、自动化检查、拆除/修复?设施管理、管理信息系统、智能控制系统。
Automation in Construction is an international journal for the publication of original research papers. The journal publishes refereed material on all aspects pertaining to the use of Information Technologies in Design, Engineering, Construction Technologies, and Maintenance and Management of Constructed Facilities. The scope of Automation in Construction is broad, encompassing all stages of the construction life cycle from initial planning and design, through construction of the facility, its operation and maintenance, to the eventual dismantling and recycling of buildings and engineering structures. The following list of topics is not intended to be exhaustive, but rather to indicate topics that fall within the journal's purview:? Computer-aided design, product modeling, decision support systems, classification and standardization, product data interchange? Computer-aided engineering, process simulation models, graphics? Robotics, metrology, logistics, automated inspection, demolition/remediation? Facilities management, management information systems, intelligent control systems.
