    ADOPTION OF INDUSTRY 4.0 TOOLS IN ACHIEVING CONSTRUCTION 4.0 FOR SUSTAINABLE INFRASTRUCTURE DEVELOPMENT
    (AECC Beijing Institute of Aeronautical Materials (BIAM), 2023) Amusan, Lekan; Aigbavboa, Clinton; Emetere, Moses; Oloke, Olayinka
    Construction 4.0 has been enabled through the introduction of Industry 4.0and its tools. The rate of adoption of the Construction 4.0, however, to create a good ecological landscape has been rapid which needs enhancement for achieving sustainable infrastructure. This study therefore aims at presenting an integral approach to creating a pathway-model for technological innovation, industrial and sustainable infrastructural development using Lean thinking, Industry 4.0 technologies and sustainability concepts. The main objective of the study is to study the issues around the adoption of industry 4.0 to achieve Construction 4.0 for achieving sustainable infrastructure. The study articulated the following objective parameters to carry out the survey, such as (i) Industry 4.0 application drivers in the construction industry in achieving sustainable infrastructural development, (ii) prospect of Construction 4.0 in achieving industrial development of Industry 4.0,(iii) factors influencing the adoption of Industry 4.0 for technological development, (iv) future of Construction 4.0 in construction industry in infrastructural development and (v) socioeconomic implications of Industry 4.0 tools adoption.A total of 150 samples was used for the study from a population frame of 250 construction. The sample frame of 250 construction companies that are medium and large scale in the category we used as the sample frame for the study. The following statistical tools of SPSS 25 were used to process the data: Mean index, Kruska-wallis,ANOVA, Pearson ranking, Cronbach Alpha and Chi square. The study recommends the following:However, adoption of the Construction 4.0, there are numerous parameters that influence the adoption of industry 4.0 for technological development,which need to be considered to achieve sustainable infrastructural development. For instance, there is a need for attitudinal change, cultural orientation,economic development, and technological innovation. There is a future for success in the application of Construction 4.0 in creating a robust infrastructural economy which is sustainable.

    Influence of Industry 4.0 Applications on Covid-19 Pandemic in Managing Materials, Human Resources and Completion Time of Construction Projects
    (Praise Worthy Prize S.r.l., 2024) Amusan, Lekan; Odusola, Mojisola; Aigbavboa, Clinton; Ajao, Ayodele Christianah
    This research was centered on the influence of Industry4.0 in effective management of Covid-19 pandemic on construction sites and materials and resources of construction projects on construction sites. This study aims to increase sensitization about the COVID-19 pandemic's influence on the construction industry. For this research work, 80 questionnaires were administered to selected construction sites in the areas with highest incidence of Covid-19 in South Western Nigeria (Lagos State). The influence, effect, and strategies adopted using Industry4.0 apparatus The structured questionaire designed in Likert scale was distributed to respondents. The collated questionaire was test for validity and reliability and was found to be in good order. Spearman ranking, ANOVA, Mean item scores and relative agreement tools were used to process the data.It was discovered that Industry 4.0 tools were of good help during the pandemic in allocation, distribution and curation of information and resources. It was also discovered that COVID 19 posed a lot of challenges in administering human resources personnel while companies suffered procurement of effective human resources, low productivity and casualties while the pandemic lasts. The study however recommended intense use of the Industry4.0 tools in construction process administration even in the advent of Zero Covid 19 incidence on sites.
