Currently, artificial neural networks (ANN) are used to solve the following complex problems: pattern recognition, speech recognition, complex forecasts and others. The main applications of ANN are decision making, pattern recognition, optimization, forecasting, data analysis. This paper presents an overview of applications of ANN in construction industry, including energy efficiency and energy consumption, structural analysis, construction materials, smart city and BIM technologies, structural design and optimization, application forecasting, construction engineering and soil mechanics.

This chapter reveals the advantages of artificial neural networks (ANNs) by means of prediction success and effects on solutions for various problems. With this aim, initially, multilayer ANNs and their structural properties are explained. Then, feed-forward ANNs and a type of training algorithm called back-propagation, which was benefited for these type networks, are presented. Different structural design problems from civil engineering are optimized, and handled intended for obtaining prediction results thanks to usage of ANNs.
