Abstract:
Virtual reality technology has emerged as a potential solution for the challenges faced by the construction industry in the design and planning phase of construction projects.Traditional methods, such as 2D drawings and physical models, are often in adequate in conveying the complexity and intricacies of a building, making it difficult for stakeholders to collaborate effectively. Virtual reality technology can help address these challenges by providing a more immersive and interactive design and planning experience, allowing stakeholders to visualize and experience a building before it is constructed. In addition, virtual reality technology can also be used to simulate construction processes and identify potential safety hazards. However, there is still alack of understanding regarding the effectiveness of virtual reality technology in the construction industry. This thesis aims to investigate the current state of virtual reality technology in construction, exploring its potential benefits and challenges in the design and planning phase of construction projects through a literature review and case studies of projects that have used virtual reality technology.
