, professional advice, quality control, and proper construction and tradetechniques. The goals of this research are to identify the challenges and vulnerabilities of low-income communities, as well as gaps in construction trade knowledge and resources amongthem. Additionally, this research aims to investigate effective pedagogy to provide low-incomeindividuals with appropriate education, training, techniques, and expertise to aid in resilient post-disaster reconstruction. To achieve these goals, this research conducted a survey to architecture,engineering, and construction (AEC) experts from Puerto Rico to identify: (a) the majorchallenges and vulnerabilities of low-income communities post-disaster, as well as the mainissues of informal construction; (b
roles played by employer policies and organizations such as the AGC. By emphasizing the industry's proactive measures, it seeks to inspire and attract young individuals to consider fulfilling careers in construction, contributing to a sustainable and thriving future for the sector. B. The significance of students thinking about professions in the construction business is emphasized in this essay. It will look at the main issue facing the construction industry, which is a lack of competent labor, how the sector has tried to meet the needs of the newest generation, and what possible reforms have been suggested for the future. It explores the ways in which employer policies impact the career decisions

examples of volume visualization usingthe 3D model. The polygon tool is utilized to measure the stockpile volume, as shown in Figure1(a). This tool enables us to define the area of interest and accurately measure the volume of thestockpile. Once the area of interest is defined with the polygon tool, the stockpile is inspectedand displayed in the 3D model, as demonstrated in Figure 1(b). This process is a highly effectiveway to measure the accurate volume of earthwork and trenches, depending on the polygon tool'scoverage area. In summary, the volume visualization feature, coupled with the polygon tool, isan excellent way to measure accurate volumes of stockpiles. It is a quick and efficient methodthat yields precise results, making it an
