Digital Twin in Construction Market Trends

Digital twins are created by gathering and combining real-world information using technologies like 3D laser scanners, drones, sensors, cameras, and other IoT-related devices. A digital twin can learn from various sources and automatically update when enabled by IoT or AI to a real-world counterpart.

Physical orientation (such as shape, position, gesture, or motion), interactions, and updates can all be monitored in a digital twin. Data includes information on the properties and states of an object. Moreover, contractors and AE firms can tackle the most urgent issues in the industry, such as poor performance, low profitability, and high error and accident rates, by incorporating digital twins into the Building Information Modeling (BIM) process. Further, they can also help businesses reduce virtual design and construction costs and increase bids. Hence, project teams can also test digitally and analyze anticipated results before making changes to the actual physical construction, structure, or work site.

Digital Twin in Construction Market Growth Drivers:

• Growing adoption of cloud-based platforms: Expansion in IoT and cloud-based platforms form the largest growth base of the digital twin market, mainly due to establishing a robust foundation for real-time data collection and analysis. Since IoT sensors can offer continuous streams of operational data that can be processed and studied in the cloud, these technologies can build progressively more intricate and detailed digital models of physical assets.

Further, digital twin solutions are easier to implement with the scalability and accessibility of cloud platforms. Major cloud providers have introduced comprehensive digital twin capabilities. For instance, Microsoft provides its digital twin ontology for building management and construction.

• Rising Government Initiatives: Globally, the government is incentivizing the adoption of advanced technologies in construction through financial assistance and legal frameworks. For example, in February 2024, the DoT launched a novel initiative - Sangam: Digital Twin-seeking Expressions of Interest (EOI) from innovators, startups, MSMEs, industrial trailblazers, and academic institutions.

Moreover, research and innovation in digital twins in construction is also promoted through the EU Horizon Europe Program. All projects under the program aim to apply digital twins of the EU's buildings and electrical infrastructure.

Digital Twin in Construction Market Segmentation Analysis by Type:

• Informative Twin: Informative twins play an important role in achieving sustainability objectives by simulating energy usage, maximizing building design, enhancing material selection, and increasing market expansion.
