"IR 4.0, the fourth industrial revolution, has been powered by the evolution of innovations and technology. In recent years, IR 4.0 has been delivered as a popular term with the central concept projected by extended use of Information and Communications Technology along with the advancement toward automation and digitization of the manufacturing environment. Despite its potential benefits in terms of improvements in quality and productivity, the concept of IR 4.0 has not gained much attention in the construction industry. The researchers have linked this gap, between the construction sector and IR 4.0, to the fact that the far-reaching implications of the increasingly automated and digitized manufacturing environment are still widely unknown by the stakeholders in the construction industry. This chapter aims to map the state of IR 4.0 in the construction sector, to identify its key areas, and evaluate and interpret the available evidence. The way forward for the construction sector, along with IR 4.0, shows a significant impact and improvement on the project�s progress and achievement in terms of cost, time, and quality. © The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2022."^^ .
