Sažetak
The construction industry has undergone a
radical transformation in its design and documentation
process as it evolved from the days of the drafting
board to today’s Building Information Modeling process.
Despite the progress, a paradox of designing 3D in 2D
space remains, calling for new visualization technologies
that leverage the use of information in construction.
Augmented Reality (AR) is an emerging technology that
can serve as an information aggregator and a data-publishing
platform, allowing users to view and interact with
information while collaborating with others in real-time
from remote locations. While AR holds the key to advance
the construction industry, no research project has yet
comprehensively investigated the holistic integration of
AR in construction. Thus, this paper presents a comprehensive
map that provides a holistic framework to understand
the integration of AR into the construction phase.
To achieve the research objective, the paper identifies and
describes 23 use-cases of AR in the construction phase,
nine AR capabilities, and 14 AR potential benefits. Then,
four AR applications in construction are explored, where
the underlying use-cases are discussed and mapped as a
function of their corresponding AR capabilities and potential
benefits. These AR applications provide an example
to illustrate the concept behind the comprehensive map.
Finally, the map is developed by outlining the relationships
between the identified AR use-cases, capabilities,
and potential benefits. The findings of this paper are
crucial for the AR implementation roadmap as it provides
industry practitioners an understanding of the capabilities
and benefits of integrating AR into construction tasks.
