Understanding BIM Users' Perspectives on AR-BIM in 3D Visualization and Modeling Reviews in Jordanian AEC Firms

This study examines the perspectives of BIM users in Jordanian AEC firms on integrating Augmented Reality (AR) with Building Information Modeling (BIM) to improve 3D visualization and model review. A quantitative approach was employed through a structured questionnaire distributed to 37 BIM firms, which included 394 practitioners in Amman. The survey explored perceptions of AR-BIM benefits, focusing on spatial understanding, collaboration, and error reduction. Statistical analysis revealed a significant correlation between user categories and their views, suggesting that experience influences perceived value. Results highlight that AR-BIM integration enhances project efficiency and streamlines review workflows. The findings provide empirical evidence for implementing AR-BIM technologies in the Jordanian AEC sector, contributing to an understanding of immersive technology adoption in construction. Overall, the study emphasizes AR-BIM's potential to support decision-making and improve outcomes in 3D modeling.
