USING IOT TO SUPPORT OPERATIONS IN THE CONSTRUCTION SECTOR

Abstract

The concept of the Internet of Things (IoT) has become widely accepted within a variety of industries. Many companies have already adopted and implemented the technology. Construction companies today are striving to achieve their targets by using the latest technologies at the lowest possible cost while ensuring maximum security and safety. growing number of construction companies are focusing more on the benefits of the internet in their projects to improve processes, reduce waste and optimally utilize their resources and the Internet of Things (IoT) is making this possible in a much more efficient way than before. IoT has now become the newest technology that is being used in the construction industry. This paper aims to improve the understanding of the importance of IoT and its implementation in the construction industry. The paper examines how the Internet of Things can be applied to the construction industry based on various studies done by researchers. This article discusses the factors influence the adoption of based on the results of surveys conducted and identifies future work needs related to the use of IoT in various fields. Survey has been conducted and data has been collected from 375 workers and 142 staff and the data has been analyzed. descriptive analysis, reliability & correlations were conducted on the survey given and then followed by multiple regression to validate the significant variables which are specified in the research, and we found that we have resistance and safety in the stuff model were insignificant. However, in the worker survey, we found ease of use, security & accessibility & dependability of IoT technology are insignificant which has been discussed thoroughly in the "Division of results section "
