One of a kind products, processes, and partner groups typically characterise the architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) industry. This has led to a challenging industry environment with islands of automation, difficult communication between stakeholders, and increasing specialisation. Building information modelling (BIM) is a modern approach to building design, documentation, delivery, and lifecycle management that addresses many AEC challenges. The outcome of this process is a comprehensive building information model that encompasses all relevant data and information related to the construction process as well as the built asset. This model is a primary resource for diverse end-user applications, including augmented reality, that could be essential in bridging the gap between the virtual and physical worlds and has become a component of modern digital workflows within the AEC industry. This chapter provides an overview of AEC specifics and how those reflect in implementing augmented reality in the context of BIM processes. It also delves into the challenges that must be addressed to facilitate the widespread adoption of augmented reality technology in the AEC sector.
