AB  - Dynamic Life Cycle Assessment (DLCA) is an emerging approach in the construction industry it is. Yet, current research is often limited, overlooks operational patterns, and relies on generic case studies, highlighting the need for an extended method to apply these analyses in the built environment. This study conducts a Systematic Literature Review to evaluate the current state of DLCA research and identify key steps toward developing a unified and globally applicable methodology. Using the PRISMA protocol, 69 peer-reviewed articles were selected and analyzed through bibliometric and bibliographic methods. The findings were organized using a SWOT (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Challenges) framework. Results show that DLCA remains a growing area of interest, with consistent publication rates and leadership from developed countries and main publication vehicles. The integration of Industry 4.0 technologies presents promising opportunities for enhancing DLCA through real-time data management and richer databases. However, challenges such as high implementation costs, limited training, and stakeholder resistance persist. This study contributes by summarizing in an organized form the current trends and barriers, offering insights to support the development of standardized DLCA practices and informing future public policies aimed at environmental protection and sustainable construction.
