Interactions of Lean and BIM Integrated Augmented Reality in Underground Utility Relocation Projects
Building Information Modelling (BIM) and lean construction were being extensively used in construction projects to improve project performance and eliminate lean waste associated in the process. Though being different in concepts and applications, their integrated application was found to provide better advantages than implementing individually. With the advancement of technologies, the current BIM applications are evolving to consider technologies such as Augmented Reality. Several studies have addressed the interactions or synergies that exist between BIM functionalities and lean principles. However, such interactions were limited to standalone BIM approaches. Other approaches of BIM, such as BIM with AR and lean were seldom targeted. Hence, this paper aims to establish interactions between AR integrated BIM and lean, and identify how AR integration can improve BIM-lean interactions. To establish such interaction, a case study of an underground utility relocation project is considered, and BIM models are developed and applied in practice. The identified BIM and AR functionalities are used then to establish interaction with the lean principles. 46 AR-BIM-lean interactions and 36 BIM-lean interactions have been identified. From analysis, it is evident that AR integration with BIM not only reinforces BIM-lean interactions but also enables newer interactions with lean and enables achieving lean in construction.
