Construction Industry Trends to look for in 2022

After the tumultuous period of a global pandemic, the expectations in the construction industry have transformed the forecast. However, 2022 has been observed as the reemergence of the construction consultancies towards their growth. Despite the sudden rise in requirements, there are various elements that seem to affect the industry vertical. 

To overcome the coming challenges, construction industry trends are likely to harness the technological approach to keep the industry stable. Below are some expected construction trends to watch for in the year 2022.


  1. Protective Equipment

The construction industry was highly affected by the COVID-19 pandemic and even more, stricter guidelines came to play. The industry now has to focus highly on strict safety protocols, focusing more on cleanliness, hygiene, and state regulations. This calls for an enhanced influence of projects, thus impacting the overall cost of the construction project. 



Construction consultancies would also be focusing more on machines identifying safety measures and averting risk-related factors. The addition of PPE (personal protective equipment) is another cost added to the overall budget that is now mandatory. 


  1. Efficient Technology

Technology is a big accelerator for the construction industry and in the post-pandemic zone, it is now bigger than ever. Construction consultancies would highly rely on technology for not just construction, but also on innovation, designing factors that increase the efficiency of the project. Much technological equipment will make its way post-pandemic, including the use of AI, machine learning, and increased use of sensors for safety. 


  1. Remote Worksites and Mobile Access

Remote access to the workstations, that was once a dream is shaping into reality in the post-pandemic era. Construction consultancies might have to incorporate mobile access, including measurement tasks, real-time operations, and on-site accountability through a mobile phone or camera. 

While the global pandemic reduced the physical access of team members, materials, and spaces, the new normal would incorporate the team meeting remotely more than in-person meetings. 


  1. Rising Material Costs

With surging prices of oil, technology, and increased use of PPE, there will be a rise in material costs as well. Moreover, with innovation seeping into the construction industry, different materials such as healing concrete, 3D graphene, transparent aluminum, light-generating concrete, invisible solar cells would be more expensive than conventional materials.
