In the rapidly evolving landscape of the built environment, the integration of smart technologies is transforming construction management. The advent of artificial intelligence (AI), construction robots, advanced sensors, and deep learning algorithms has led to unprecedented advancements in efficiency, safety, and sustainability. This Research Topic aims to capture the cutting-edge research that explores the theoretical foundations and technological implementations driving this transformation. By focusing on smart construction management, we seek to highlight how innovations are reshaping traditional practices and fostering new paradigms in project delivery.

The primary objective of this Research Topic is to provide a comprehensive platform for discussing the latest theoretical innovations and technological advancements in smart construction management. We aim to bring together researchers, practitioners, and policymakers to explore the multifaceted impacts of AI, robotics, sensors, and deep learning on construction processes. The goal is to foster interdisciplinary dialogue, identifying emerging trends, challenges, and opportunities in leveraging smart technologies for enhanced project outcomes. Contributions should offer insights into how these technologies are redefining construction management, improving decision-making, optimizing resource allocation, and ensuring compliance with safety and environmental standards.

We invite submissions that present Original Research or Reviews within the scope of smart construction management. Topics may include but are not limited to:

1. Theoretical frameworks for integrating AI in construction management.
2. Applications of construction robots and autonomous systems in various stages of the construction lifecycle.
3. The role of sensors and IoT in real-time monitoring and predictive maintenance.
4. Deep learning algorithms for optimizing construction scheduling, cost control, and quality assurance.
5. Ethical considerations and social implications of smart construction technologies.
6. Innovations in construction site management enabled by digital twins and virtual/augmented reality.

Authors are encouraged to submit manuscripts that offer novel perspectives, empirical evidence, or practical guidance on advancing smart construction management. Papers should be original, unpublished, and not currently under review elsewhere. Submission guidelines and deadlines will be available on the Frontiers in Built Environment website. We look forward to receiving contributions that contribute to the expanding frontier of smart construction management.
