An Investigation into Combined Hypertext-Expert System Techniques Focused on the Application to Concrete Practice

Expert systems represent the application of artificial intelligence research that is at least 10-15 years old. It may well take another 5-10 years before the present technology is exploited by industry. The objective of this paper is to show the applicability of Combined Hypertext-Expert System Techniques to the professionals working in the construction industry. Expert systems alone don't give the user any control over the system. Hypertext systems that focus only on displaying messages have the opposite problem. While they allow the user to control the system., the only control the system designer has is in setting up the hypertext links. Therefore the combination of these two techniques, offered by KnowledgePro, may bring us closer to real user-expert communication. The system developed in this work offers information on ACI Manual concerning various problem areas in concrete practice, consultation about mix design of concrete and guidance to identify types of cracks in concrete. Once the type of crack is identified through the rule-based knowledge, the system provides the user with remedial measures through the control of the user.
