I think you're quite a bit delusional here. Construction industry and the software industry are asymmetrically different from each other in the complexities you'd need to deal with.
For example, there might be many ways to do the same thing in the software industry, but you might have already dedicated yourself to proving that a given solution works "good enough". So hitting "delete" on that solution would require unmaintainable at that step amount of coordination between many teams who are using your code.
Construction doesn't deal with constant changes to the laws of physics, but software industry has a churn rate of APIs of about 1 new version every 6 months, all of which need to be constantly overseen and accounted for.
Did construction industry have anything like GDPR happen to it in the last 20 years?

You mean like regulations and building codes so that we don't have incidents where apartment buildings collapse like in China? Some tests to get certain architecture certification require them to literally memorize different rules from everything to how close an AC unit can be to certain things. There are a LOT of rules to follow.
