In a world of mixed and layered information, traditional representation methods on construction sites and training environments often lack to reflect the connection between the digital and the real world. By utilizing emerging technologies such as Augmented Reality (AR), this study explores new representation methods in construction and training. On-screen overlaying of digital information over real-world environments enhances the 3-dimensional (3D) understanding, facilitates navigation between various levels of information, and provides step-by-step guidance. In an experimental case study in San Carlos, Philippines, an AR-guided training and assembly app is developed in collaboration with Zurich-based start-up incon.ai to train and assist the builders of the Base Bahay Foundation for bamboo panel assembly in low-cost housing. Properties like user engagement and adoption, informative and accelerative quality, and training and work process optimization are measured through a final field study with builders in a real-world training environment in the Philippines.
