Abstract
The rapid development and adoption of AR applications, creates numerous opportunities for integrating AR with BIM and improving conventional methods used in the fields of architecture, engineering and construction (AEC). In this paper, the current trends in the development of AR applications and the application of AR technologies in the fields of AEC are proposed. Also the relation between AR application and BIM in the AEC industry with the benefits of this integration and possible issues is discussed. The related examples of BIM+AR are described during the literature review. The authors believe the papers presented in this document, cover the latest research trends and developments in the use of AR and its' combination with BIM for AEC applications. In the future, it is expected that AR applications will be further utilized in the AEC field to enhance productivity, safety and efficiency.
