Abstract

Blockchain and distributed ledger technologies (DLTs) are increasingly recognised for their potential to address complex challenges across various sectors. Within construction and the built environment, these technologies are beginning to show promise not only in tackling persistent issues such as inefficiencies, fragmented processes and trust deficits but also in reshaping business models, enabling new forms of organising and driving value creation. Construction and the built environment, known for their significant economic and environmental impact, face growing pressures to adopt innovative, sustainable and collaborative approaches. [...]
