Enabling Technologies of IoT and Challenges in Various Field of Construction Industry in the 5G Era: A Review

Abstract

In this new age, the Internet and its usefulness became the backbone of people in our everyday lives and developed a corresponding wave of technological developments. One of the latest technological upgrade developments is the Internet of Things (IoT), which attracted researchers with great interest. Using this upgraded technology, we can interact with devices via. Internet Sensors, actuators, or computers. The Internet of Things (IoT) is not a new concept in my research. We have been introducing it for decades, but incorporating IoT in the construction industry is a new exciting subject that leads us to the next Construction Industry 4.0 revolution. This paper offers an overview of IoT technology, tracks and classifies IoT Technology's position in various fields with exclusive studies and statistics. This analysis paper also focuses on various IoT applications in contemporary -day production strategies and addresses issues related to IoT implementation in production. This study paper also identifies key points to recognise the use of virtual technologies for building operations and lays a good basis for future studies for smart construction works. Researchers are also doing their best to introduce IoT technology in the field of civil engineering in order to provide trouble-free work in construction industries and to improve productivity, as the construction industry is least digitised.
