About
Dr. Ahmed Farouk Kineber is a leading researcher at the intersection of construction engineering, sustainable development, and technology adoption. His work primarily focuses on identifying and modeling the critical barriers and drivers for implementing advanced technologies—particularly robotics—in construction projects within developing nations. Dr. Kineber’s major contributions include empirically validating frameworks that explain how to overcome resistance to innovation in the building sector, using advanced statistical methods like Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM). His highly cited 2021 study, “Modeling the robotics implementation barriers for construction projects in developing countries” (29 citations), systematically maps the obstacles facing the industry, while his 2022 work on sustainable building projects in Nigeria (18 citations) demonstrates how strategic drivers can be leveraged to align robotics adoption with sustainability goals. By providing evidence-based roadmaps for stakeholders in resource-constrained environments, Dr. Kineber’s research is pivotal for accelerating the digital transformation of construction, making it safer, more efficient, and more sustainable. His work is essential reading for anyone interested in bridging the gap between cutting-edge technology and real-world project delivery in the Global South.
