The article discusses the opportunities that arise when using data mining methods in construction. A numerical experiment is carried out to create an algorithm for making design decisions in the production of zero-cycle works, namely, when installing the enclosing structures of the pit edge. Comparison of the data obtained in the Deductor Studio software product with those actually used in the construction of a residential building is performed.
