With the advancement of the “dual carbon” strategy and the acceleration of digital transformation in the construction industry, smart construction sites have become a key path to enhancing construction safety and efficiency. This article systematically reviews the application of Internet of Things (IoT) technology in the integrated management of risks and safety in intelligent construction, covering the system architecture, key technologies, typical application scenarios, and future development trends. It analyzes the four-layer IoT architecture (perception, network, platform, and application) and explores the synergistic role of key technologies, including BIM, digital twins, AI video analytics, and electronic geofencing. Case studies demonstrate that this IoT-driven approach to IRSM can significantly reduce injury rates, shorten project durations, and improve overall operational efficiency. Finally, the study identifies persistent challenges—including technical integration complexities, data security concerns, and cost-benefit standardization—and proposes future research directions towards the integration of 5G, AI, edge computing, and green construction principles.
