Abstract
Appropriate selection of lifting equipments for a high-rise building construction project is one of the important factors to the project's success. Proper position of a tower crane on a construction site is so important to be determined by an expert or an experienced construction manager who draws working range of a tower crane and moves it over 2D(dimensional) site layout plan. 3D CAD, BIM, and virtual reality are is used for building design and construction, but it is not usual to use them for temporary facility planning or selection of a tower crane. This study proposes a suitable method to use augmented reality to select proper position of tower cranes. An augmented reality prototype is implemented by Vuforia and Unity 3D on a smart device to verify the practicability of the proposed method. The prototype application installed on a smart device shows several tower cranes on different markers in a real architectural drawing to locate the proper tower crane.
