Experiencia TIIC 2026: second place and a talk about algorithms on site

On 20 October we received the second-place certificate of TIIC, the Argentine Chamber of Construction's innovation programme, showed Stabileo at a stand and took part in the talk "Your next site colleague could be an algorithm".

TIIC (Transforming and Innovating the Construction Industry) is the Argentine Chamber of Construction’s programme for projects that aim to change how buildings are designed and built. This year about seventy projects applied, ten were selected, and Stabileo came second, which brought it into the 2026 cohort.

On 20 October the Experiencia TIIC took place at the Parque de Innovación in Buenos Aires: a day with the cohort’s projects and people from across the construction industry. We had a stand with Stabileo running live, received the certificate and took part in one of the talks.

The talk

The talk was called “Your next site colleague could be an algorithm”. We shared it with Iván Gauna, co-founder and CEO of ETHIX, and it was moderated by Camila Velasco.

For Stabileo, we explained how we approach AI in structural calculation: the agent helps build, change and document the model, and the numbers come from a verified solver the agent cannot touch. The engineer who signs has to be able to check where every result comes from, and that can be guaranteed when the calculation stays outside the language model.

What the jury said

The programme’s jury made a single remark: for professional use, the AI agent should ideally be validated by a standards body such as CIRSOC. We agree, and we have taken it on as a line of work. In the meantime, Stabileo’s design-code checks are compared with published worked examples and with hand calculations.

What comes next

The cohort puts us in touch with construction companies and engineering firms that can try Stabileo on real projects. If you work at one and want to try it, Stabileo runs in the browser and the analysis is free.
