Cloud Manufacturing, Internet of Things-Assisted Manufacturing and 3D Printing Technology: Reliable Tools for Sustainable Construction

The United Nations (UN) 2030 agenda on sustainable development goals (SDGs) encourages us to implement infrastructure and services for confronting challenges such as large energy consumption, solid waste generation, depletion of water resources emission greenhouse gases in the construction industry. Therefore, overcome establishing construction, there is a requirement integrate information technology with innovative manufacturing processes materials science. Moreover, wide implementation three-dimensional printing (3DP) constructing monuments, artistic objects, residential buildings has gained attention. integration Internet Things (IoT), cloud (CM), 3DP allows digitalize providing reliable digitalized features users. In this review article, we discuss opportunities implementing IoT, CM, 3D technologies building constructions achieving sustainability. recent convergence research are being explored article by categorizing them into multiple sections including resource access technology, platform (3D–PCP) service architectures, optimized configuration evaluation control monitoring technology. This paper also examines analyzes limitations existing and, moreover, provides key recommendations automation robotics, predictive analytics 3DP, eco-friendly 5G technology-based IoT-based CM future enhancements.
