Abstract

The growth of information technologies had its tardiest step in the field of construction industry. With the advancements of technologies in various fields, adoption of the latest technologies is fostering the growth of construction management. The title “Construction 4.0” was framed from “Industry 4.0” a fundamental which is described as the fourth industrial reformation. The “Industry 4.0” is an innovative modification in the production sector that permits the collaboration of many advanced technologies. Specifically, it’s the Engineering and Construction industry’s generation of Industry 4.0, a movement towards greater digitization. It encapsulates the scientific advancement stuffs such as automation, model pre fabrication, 3D printing, unmanned flights, virtual reality, robots, and sensor nodes used to configure the construction industry with better solutions. This paper focuses only on the utilization of sensor and UAV which are used in railway bridges to monitor bridge deflections and bridge performance measurements.
