About this Research Topic
The need for transdisciplinary research into new knowledge and innovative solutions for construction management can be satisfied through the establishment and development of theory and praxis in related subject areas, and it is generally of researchers’ interest to develop research philosophy and activities by focusing on theory and praxis to tackle grand challenges towards construction for excellence.
This Research Topic aims to provide a forum for academics and professionals to present new theory and/or praxis in research into construction management under contemporary digital transformation in the built environment. The editors would like to provide this unique opportunity for researchers around the world to show the advances of professional knowledge and technical solutions that can help enhance management performance in the subject field of digital construction. It is also expected that this research topic can support and facilitate a process to learn, discuss and reflect on the implications of theory and praxis in digital construction management.
The scope of this research topic covers all issues relating to the theory and praxis of digital construction management. Issues under this research topic could be connected to, but are not limited to, the following listed areas:
• Philosophy, strategy and techniques of research and practice in digital construction management.
• Multi-methodological research into lifecycle management performance enhancement for digital construction practice at strategical, tactical, and/or operational level.
• Practice oriented learning to improve research and development in digital construction management.
• Descriptive and/or innovative research into digital construction management.
• Convergence research for digital construction management.
• Development of professional standards and/or codes of practice for excellence in digital construction.
• Grand challenges for the future of digital construction management.
