BIM Augmented/Virtual Reality App for Construction

BIM Augmented Reality Android App for Construction
➡Building Information Modeling (BIM) based mobile application which simulates cost, safety and quality information by linking MS-Project and BIM 3D model on 2D Based drawings

BIM can be viewed as a virtual process that encompasses all aspects, disciplines, and systems of a facility within a single, virtual model, allowing all design team members (owners, architects, engineers, contractors, subcontractors, and suppliers) to collaborate more accurately and efficiently than using traditional processes. As the model is being created, team members are constantly refining and adjusting their portions according to project specifications
