Abstract

With the advancement of technologies geared to the civil construction and in particular with the virtual demonstration of projects, the applications for these new technologies enable the construction managers the possibility of analysis of work in a virtual scenario, in order to perform strategic planning of execution management still in the project phase. The use of augmented reality as a way of planning the execution of works allows the planning manager to formulate scenarios of execution of services with the virtual demonstration of the projects and the presentation of the elements to be constructed in a simulated way. This tool is not limited to simple presentation in a closed environment, but also in the “in-place” presentation, where it will be built to perform a simulation of all the constructive steps, thus analyzing globally possible interferences in the project. In this way, it is possible to perform the lease of work, with the location of foundations, masonry, structures, installations, finishes, among other constructive steps, thus enabling the realization of a prior analysis of the virtually built for the design of construction planning.
