Along with the development of technology, new tools are born which facilitate the workflow in the engineering and construction field. By taking advantage of these tools, like Building Information Modeling (BIM) and Augmented Reality (AR), multiple benefits are obtained such as: (1) reducing time in decision making during the design stage (2) a better understanding of the documents in the planning stage (3) monitoring of the project in real time to ensure the fulfilment of the schedule, amongst others. On the other hand, and since its origins, Lean Construction philosophy promotes the use of these tools to automatize projects according to its principles. The objective of this paper is to present the state of the art regarding the simultaneous use of BIM, AR and Lean Construction, applied to the design and construction phases. For this purpose, the documents published in the last 5 years regarding BIM and AR in the conference of the International Group for Lean Construction and main journals were reviewed. Finally, the paper concludes with the recommendation of assessing a deeper research on the integration of BIM, AR and Lean Construction.

The present article has the objective of describing the teaching strategies applied in the undergraduate course “Safety and Health in Construction”, taught in the Civil Engineering Department in the Pontifical Catholic University of Peru, integrating production, safety, and health, through the tools and techniques of the Last Planner System. The objectives and contents of the course are explained, as well as the principles, tools, techniques and practices of the Lean Construction philosophy that integrate and make synergy with the elaboration of Safety and Health Study, with the implementation of the Safety and Health Plan, and with the OHSAS 18001:2007. This article also describes the information obtained in the collaborative work developed by the students, in small groups, who applied everything taught in the course to a real case study in a building project. The success of this activity is reflected in the opportunities of betterment identified, in the quality of the student’s work and in the results of the survey taken by all the participants anonymously.ResumenEl presente artículo tiene como objetivo describir las estrategias de enseñanza de la asignatura de pregrado “Seguridad y Salud en la Construcción” dictado en el programa de Ingeniería Civil de la Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, integrando producción, seguridad y salud mediante las herramientas y técnicas del Last Planner System. Se explican los objetivos y contenidos de la asignatura, así como los principios, herramientas, técnicas y prácticas de la filosofía Lean Construcción que complementan y hacen sinergia con la elaboración del Estudio de Seguridad y Salud, con la implementación del Plan de Seguridad y Salud, y con la OHSAS 18001:2007. Este artículo describe también la información obtenida en los trabajos colaborativos que desarrollaron grupalmente los estudiantes, quienes aplicaron lo aprendido en la asignatura a un caso de estudio real de un proyecto de edificación. El éxito de esta actividad de formación se refleja en las oportunidades de mejora identificadas, en la calidad de los trabajos presentados y en los resultados de la encuesta de opinión tomada a los participantes de forma anónima.
