Abstract

Rapid changes in technology application due to increment of market requirements have been a pushing factor to radical industry adoption and adaptation upon new technologies. The integration of emerging technologies associated with Industry 4.0 with construction delivery processes had founded the Construction 4.0 term which been emerging in the recent research corpus. The adoption of Construction 4.0, major changes in the construction process delivery stages, project structures and organization and ultimately integrate the known highly fragmented construction industry atmosphere including its work force. These changes will require another level of skill set for the construction personnel who involve in the construction project life cycle and its value chain. The current level of awareness on Construction 4.0, key challenges faced and technologies adoption readiness amongst construction skill training institutes in Malaysia upon changes associated with Construction 4.0 technologies need to be assessed and well understood. This will be the basis for construction lead body in Malaysia to mitigate the way forward for the construction skills training institutions of the nation. As there are still limited research and study conducted in understanding Construction 4.0 adoption clarity by the construction skills training institutions in Malaysia, this research will contribute to the enrichment of academic studies documentation related to the Construction 4.0 in specific and the Industry 4.0 generally for Malaysia context.
