Review-Based Four-Dimensional Framework for Material Passport Development in the Construction Industry

This study analyzed 27 publications on material passports (MPs) in construction, published between 2019 and 2025. Literature-derived keywords were extracted using predefined criteria, normalized, classified into four analytical dimensions, and examined through co-occurrence networks generated with VOSviewer. Based on their prominence and associations, the authors propose a four-dimensional framework linking MP development objectives, information requirements, enabling technologies, and implementation challenges. This framework is an author-developed conceptual synthesis grounded in the literature; it is neither automatically generated by VOSviewer nor an empirically validated implementation model. Within the dataset, reuse emerges as the most prominent objective, associated with lifecycle management, traceability, information continuity, and decision support. BIM occupies a central position among enabling technologies, while interoperability represents a major implementation challenge. By integrating these findings, the framework explains how MP objectives guide information selection, how information requirements influence technology choices, and how implementation constraints provide feedback that may reshape other dimensions. Its contribution lies in transforming fragmented evidence into an interconnected, objective-driven analytical structure and providing a conceptual basis for minimum viable information implementation. Future pilot projects and comparative case studies are necessary to validate its engineering applicability.
