| Abstract |
As global interests in the 4th Industrial Revolution have recently increased, it becomes critical for the construction industry to pro-actively cope with it. For effective actions, the construction industry needs to make active use of 4th Industrial Revolution technologies based on the up-to-date understanding of the trends of construction technology development employing the 4th Industrial Revolution technologies. The objective of the study is to investigate and identify key trends of ICT construction technology development over the last ten years based on Big Data Analytics. The study identifies eleven key trends and discusses that ICT construction technology development has not been as active as expected and software technologies haveb een less developed compared to hardware technologies. |
