Abstract

This study explored how smart technologies and gyroscopic materials can enhance resilience and energy efficiency in buildings. The research problem focused on understanding the role of these technologies and gyroscopes in improving building sustainability, energy, and performance. A mixed-method approach was used, combining quantitative and qualitative data. The quantitative data was gathered from randomly sampled construction professionals through a structured questionnaire, which was analyzed using SPSS software with tools like Mean Item Score (MIS), Standard Deviation (SD), Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA), and descriptive statistics. The qualitative data was collected through bibliometric analysis of 595 documents, which were examined using VOSviewer. The findings showed that smart technologies like AI, ML, and IoTs with green building and gyroscopic materials significantly impact building resilience and energy efficiency. Additionally, gyroscopes were highlighted as a key technology for improving structural health and energy management. The study concluded that integrating smart technologies with gyroscopes into construction can lead to more sustainable and resilient buildings.
