ABSTRACT
The advent of I4.0 brought about changes in the construction industry as well. Traditionally, the construction industry was male-dominated, time-consuming and manual labour-intensive. The great promise of the Construction 4.0 revolution lies in the almost complete automation of the entire project life cycle. This chapter introduces the concept of construction 4.0 to the readers in more detail. BIM technology created the opportunity for the traditional construction value chain to move towards a digital platform. In the context of Construction 4.0, the issue of data and its management is a central drive of the development of the industry. There are numerous reasons why the digital transformation of the construction industry is relatively slow. In summary, neither the demand nor the supply market can be considered mature presently. The development of Industry 4.0 means that an increasing number of professionals are appearing in the construction industry.
