| Description |
Blockchain technology, with its distributed ledger and smart contract functionalities, is revolutionizing various industries, including construction and architecture, by enhancing transparency, efficiency, and accountability. In construction, blockchain hype ledger systems improve supply chain traceability, streamline project management, and ensure regulatory compliance, leading to optimized resource allocation and dispute mitigation. However, its potential in architecture remains underexplored. This study aims to bridge this gap by investigating blockchain's applications in architectural project management and sustainability initiatives, comparing practices in construction and architecture to identify transferable strategies. Key areas of focus include improving client-architect communication, transparent tracking of design revisions and milestones, and standardizing sustainability assessments. Through a comprehensive review of literature and real-world case studies, this research examines blockchain's benefits and challenges, aiming to provide actionable insights for enhancing efficiency, transparency, and sustainability in architectural practices. |
