BS Hanyang Deploys 'B-ON' AI Agent at Construction Sites to Quickly Find Design and Construction Standards

BS Group Ramps Up "AI Management"
Integrates SUJAIN's Technical Know-How
Improves Accuracy and Speed of On-Site Decision-Making

BS Hanyang said on October 15 that it had developed and launched B-ON, an artificial intelligence (AI) agent that supports technical work at construction sites.

B-ON is an AI system specialized in construction-site technical work that BS Hanyang built in-house based on Microsoft Copilot. It was trained on internal technical materials, including construction manuals and guidelines for each trade, structural and design guidelines, and standard construction drawings. Unlike the company’s existing chatbot, which was limited to management-support work such as human resources and general affairs, B-ON directly supports the application of technical standards at construction sites in areas including architecture, structural engineering, mechanical systems, electrical systems, and ancillary civil engineering.

When a site worker asks, "Can you tell me the standards for tile installation and quality control?" B-ON responds using BS Hanyang’s own technical standards in addition to general construction standards. To ensure the reliability of its answers, it identifies the internal documents and relevant pages used as sources and provides links to view the original materials.

BS Hanyang previously operated separate platforms for mechanical and electrical manuals and an internal chatbot based on generative AI. However, technical materials were spread across multiple systems, and their sheer volume made it difficult for users to find and use the information they needed. To address these issues, the company formed a task force (TFT) to consolidate and register the technical materials, making them available through B-ON in one unified system.

The initiative is significant because it upgraded BS Hanyang’s AI capabilities by having technical staff directly participate in and develop the system, rather than relying on outsourced development.

BS Hanyang plans to use B-ON to improve work efficiency at construction sites and turn the expertise of experienced employees into an asset. After providing training for site workers this month, the company plans to expand its use to all sites.

B-ON’s development was part of "AI management," one of the four core initiatives set out under BS Group’s management policy of "Innovation" for 2026. BS Group is pursuing plans to build the National AI Computing Center and an AI data center park in Solaseado, Haenam, expanding its presence in AI infrastructure while also broadening the use of AI across the operations of its affiliates.

A BS Hanyang representative said, "B-ON is a system that allows users to access and apply, anytime and anywhere, the technical standards and on-site expertise accumulated by SUJAIN using AI. In line with BS Group’s AI management strategy, we will continue to expand the use of AI focused on construction sites and further strengthen our competitiveness in quality and safety."
