Ep. 117 | Real-time insights for safer structures


Listen on your favourite podcast platform


In this episode of Stirring the Pot we’re having a kōrero with Kaveh Andisheh.

Kaveh is the project led for the theme of Monitoring 4.0 in the Endeavour Funded and HERA led Ngākopa Construction 4.0 research project. We dive into Monitoring 4.0 and speak about how it is revolutionising structural health by using cutting-edge technology and real-time data to make construction smarter, safer, and more sustainable. From detecting early damage in buildings to informing better design practices, it’s an approach that’s transforming the industry.

Kaveh explains how Monitoring 4.0 overcomes the limitations of traditional testing by embedding sensors in real structures to provide accurate, actionable insights. This technology eliminates guesswork, reduces material use, extends infrastructure lifespan, and informs updates to outdated standards. He also shares how AI is making monitoring more cost-effective and accessible, with huge potential for high-seismic areas like New Zealand.

If you’re in construction, engineering, or simply curious about how tech is reshaping our built environment, this episode is packed with insights. Learn how Monitoring 4.0 is setting the foundation for a more sustainable and resilient future!
