Kashima Construction Fully Deploys Physical AI Robot to Construction Sites
Kashima Construction has fully deployed a fully autonomous mobile robot equipped with autonomous control technology developed by FieldAI to construction sites. The robot is equipped with cameras, LiDAR, and edge AI devices, and it replaces routine tasks such as patrol, photography, and measurement, enabling engineers to focus on advanced decision-making and safety management. In 2025, the two companies strengthened their cooperation and are expanding deployment to more than ten domestic sites.
Kashima Construction Secures First Domestic J-Credit with CO2-Absorbing Concrete
Kashima Construction obtained a total of 7t-CO2 J-Credits from two construction projects using the CO2-absorbing concrete "CO2-SUICOM®." This credit is the first certification in Japan based on the methodology for using CO2-absorbing concrete under the J-Credit system.
“Awai -awai2026-” to Be Held in Haneda
Haneda Mirai Development will hold “Awai -awai2026-” from November 6 to 8, 2026, at HANEDA INNOVATION CITY, a multi-purpose complex adjacent to Haneda Airport. At HICity, which is celebrating its third anniversary since its grand opening, a variety of programs covering advanced technology, culture, sports, food, and more will be presented across three categories: “Future,” “Culture,” and “Lifestyle.”
Air Conditioning Control AI Challenge Selected at NeurIPS 2026
Kashima Construction announced that the research challenge on AI control of building HVAC, proposed by researchers from universities and research institutions in the United States and Canada, has been selected for the competition division of NeurIPS 2026. The challenge aims to realize an AI model for HVAC control that does not require individual building adjustments. Kashima and others will co-host a competition to solicit AI models from around the world.
First introduction of the carbonation curing device 'Carbon Lock' at an overseas factory
Kashima Construction introduced its self-developed concrete carbonation curing device 'Carbon Lock' at a precast concrete plant in Johor, Malaysia owned by JOE Green. This is the first operation in an overseas real factory, and they began trial production of concrete partition walls using the device. They will verify the device's operability and control performance under local climate and manufacturing conditions.
Geo-CAST: Optimal Support Selection Analysis Technology Before Drilling
Kashima has developed the Geo-CAST analysis technology, which performs 3D simulations before drilling using estimated geological property values derived from drilling data, quantitatively evaluating multiple support patterns. The analysis and report generation are completed within 24 hours, supporting rapid decision-making and consensus among stakeholders. It was trially introduced in part of the South Works of the Yoro Tunnel on the Tokai Expressway and its effectiveness was confirmed.
Developed and Applied Automation Technology for Dam Foundation Treatment Work
Kajima Corporation developed an automated foundation treatment technology that automates boring and grouting work, enabling continuous construction 24 hours a day. Following its application and verification at the Naruse Dam in Akita Prefecture, the company confirmed that daily construction volume increased by 50% compared with conventional methods and that the workforce required per cycle could be reduced by up to 70%.
Developed the highly sustainable neutral fenton reagent 'FenMix'
Kashima Construction has developed a neutral Fenton reagent 'FenMix' that decomposes and neutralizes VOCs in the neutral pH range. By carefully formulating biodegradable catalysts, it sustains hydroxyl radical generation for extended periods, suppressing VOC rebound. Combined with construction methods tailored to the site environment, the effectiveness of in-situ remediation at large contaminated sites and confined areas has been confirmed. The technology was selected as a target technology in the Ministry of the Environment's 2024 survey, and its effectiveness has been verified through demonstration tests and expert evaluations.
Technology to Immobilize PFAS Using High-Pressure Jet Grouting
Kajima Corporation and Chemical Grouting Co., Ltd. have developed a technology that combines high-pressure jet grouting with a specialized mineral-based adsorbent to immobilize PFAS in the ground. It can construct ground improvement bodies directly beneath existing buildings while they remain in use, suppressing the leaching of PFAS into groundwater. The technology aims to expand the range of applications for PFAS-contaminated soil remediation and reduce costs.
Improved Mountain Tunnel Cutting Evaluation System
Kashima improved the cutting evaluation system so that data necessary for cutting evaluation can be obtained from cameras and sensors mounted on construction machinery. By having skilled workers operate a dedicated tablet, data can be collected, eliminating the need for cutting observers, reducing engineers' workload and improving productivity. It was first introduced on the National Route 169 Ukehara Tunnel and other projects, and its effectiveness was confirmed.
