“…Dallasega et al review the literature related to I4.0 for construction supply chains. 38 They confirm our view that construction logistics is to a large extent a temporary organization, which is a key difference to the more static manufacturing processes, and that this requires extensive coordination. They also discuss how I4.0 can improve the technological, organizational, geographical, and cognitive proximity in the supply chain.…”

The development of system‐of‐systems (SoS) requires a continuous interplay between design decisions on the SoS level and those on the level of its constituent systems (CS), which often preexist and need to be adapted as the SoS evolves. This involves not only preparing the CS to participate in a particular SoS, but also designing the CS architecture to make it easily adaptable to a future SoS context. The problem is in part addressed in an emerging SoS framework in the manufacturing domain called Industry 4.0. It focuses on connected and digitalized production with the ambition of increasing flexibility and efficiency. This paper investigates how Industry 4.0 standards can be used in an SoS context to make CS more flexible and adaptive, and evaluates their usefulness outside manufacturing. The study is based on a case from the construction domain, for which a generic SoS architecture is developed. Several extensions and adaptations of Industry 4.0 are suggested, including specifications of ontologies for missions and workflows.

“…In particular, over the last three years, the use of digital techniques in design and construction has started to mature and has even become the norm for many companies. Dallasega et al (2018) and Alaloul et al (2018) concluded that IoT's speedy management of real-time information sharing and coordination of communication improves flow and the supply chain of construction materials, thus enhancing the efficiency of the production line. Therefore, production costs will be at a minimum and profit margins will be improved because investments are adequately applied.…”

“…IR 4.0 is viewed as an impetus to technological improvements in an organization and increases the remote coordination of human, material, and financial resources in the construction industry. Given these IR 4.0 qualities, operations with geographical and cognitive proximity dimensions are efficiently managed (Dallasega et al 2018).…”

Industry 4.0 for the Construction Industry: Review of Management Perspective

et al. 2019

Technology and innovations have fueled the evolution of the fourth industrial revolution (Industry 4.0). Industry 4.0 spurs growth and development through its efficiency capacity, as documented in the literature. The growth of the construction industry is a subset of the universal set of the value of gross domestic product, and thus, industry 4.0 has a spillover effect on the engineering and construction industry. The aim of this paper is to map the state of Industry 4.0 in the construction industry from the point of view of manarial activities, such as investment management, project preparation, and an overall approach to the management of related activities. This study employed scoping review techniques to dissect the status quo for Industry 4.0 and the construction industry. The empirical results from the systematic and scoping review methods for the ten sampled publications revealed that information and communication technology (ICT)—Industry 4.0—has a significant positive impact on the growth of the construction industry. Therefore, construction practitioners should partner more with researchers in the ICT industry to enhance the automation of work processes and managerial activities in the engineering and construction industry.

“…Despite these benefits, Industry 4.0 was not adopted in the construction industry with the same pace as in the manufacturing industry [7]. Dallasega et al [8] attempted to explain how the Industry 4.0 concepts are changing the construction industry and its connected supply chains. Others [3] studied the changes Industry 4.0 is bringing to the managerial side of the construction industry.…”

This paper provides a critical review of the related literature on 3D printing in construction. The paper discusses and evaluates the different 3D printing techniques in construction. The paper also discusses and categorizes the benefits, challenges, and risks of 3D printing in construction. The use of 3D printing technology offers several advantages over traditional methods. However, it comes with its own additional challenges and risks. The main benefits of 3D printing in construction include constructability and sustainability benefits. The challenges are categorized into seven groups. The main challenges, found through the literature, are material related. The most cited challenges are material printability, buildability, and open time. Additionally, scalability, structural integrity, and lack of codes and regulations are frequently cited as major challenges. The additional risks are categorized into seven groups: 3D printing material, 3D printing equipment, construction site, and environment, management, stakeholders, regulatory and economic, and cybersecurity risks. The paper fills a gap in the literature as it addresses a new aspect of 3D printing, which is risk. The paper also provides some insights, recommendations, and future research ideas.
