The construction industry has been evolving to embrace the delicate balance between buildings and the sustainable environment. This has highlighted the necessity to optimize resources to create healthier and more energy-efficient constructions. Likewise, it is vital to determine the viability of architectural design and building process. The application of relevant techniques to achieve this goal is essential. However, the lack of capabilities which immerse clients, end users, and building team members in highly detailed, fully lit environments that simulate the final structure of existing techniques could discourage the development of green buildings. Augmented Reality (AR) technology, which has advanced rapidly in the past few years, could play a key role towards green construction. Despite within a Virtual Reality (VR) environment enabling its potential practice for simulated information sharing, this study focused primarily on the applications of AR for real-time communications and retrievals in a real-world interface. Moreover, integration of professional models empowering the accuracy for AR presentation is an inevitable essential during sustainable construction management. The objective of this paper highlights the need for a structured methodology of fully integrating AR technology in BIM to facilitate construction site coordination. This study describes current AR research opportunities and challenges in sustainable construction management and emphasizes what they can gain from the adoption of BIM. It is demonstrated that, extended to the site via the AR technology within the BIM platform can develop and visualize project designs, construction plans, schedules, and construction equipment into a real-time interactive and digitally manipulable environment.Current output:Publication 1
