This comprehensive literature review examines how digital technologies—such as BIM, IoT, AI, robotics, and digital twins—are transforming the building construction industry across pre-construction, construction, and facility management phases. Analyzing over 200 papers from 2008 to 2023, it identifies trends, benefits, and barriers to adoption. While digital transformation is accelerating, challenges remain around stakeholder engagement, training, infrastructure, and clear regulatory frameworks. The report positions digital innovation as a driver of collaboration, safety, and operational efficiency in construction.
