Klappentext

This is a publication-based dissertation. The book examines the promotion of innovation in construction 4.0 through the CDR approach. This opens up a new scientific research field for digital breakthroughs.

It raises awareness, explains and enables access to innovative technologies such as digitalization and AI in the construction industry and highlights the associated ethical aspects. This research comes to the conclusion that the human factor forms the basis for designing a socially sustainable digital transformation. The new findings show how innovative technology can support people more efficiently, productively, safely and meaningfully. It specifically addresses responsibility in the corporate environment and develops the key factors for success without neglecting the necessary legal, political, social and educational framework.

The aim of this book is to improve and strengthen the transfer of knowledge between research and practice on the basis of scientific communication without language barriers. In this way, the book offers broader access for readers, not only for experts, researchers, designers, implementers, doers and visionaries. The book encourages an interdisciplinary, integrative and constructive dialogue in order to avoid disciplinary silo thinking.

The diversity of potential and innovations in the industry is offset by the industry's enormous responsibility to use sustainable, human-controlled AI to achieve the 17 UN SDGs and climate goals and to increase its global competitiveness on the basis of a European quality seal.

Surprise and aha effects are inevitable. The book invites key players, everyone involved and everyone who sets new standards, to help shape the digital change in the construction industry and become innovative. The book promotes a new culture of thinking and learning and strengthens the entrepreneurial will to innovate.

Opening a new gap in scientific knowledge with this book ultimately leads to a new discipline. In addition, it expands the interdisciplinary dialogue around the globe to find new ways to assume corporate digital responsibility and adapt the framework conditions.

The book provides new ideas for defining individual digital corporate strategies.
