“…Along with the theoretical development, researchers also conducted field experiments. For instance, by solving the alignment and plumbness problem, the discrepancy check of steel pipe modules assembly was solved by Nahangi, 2015;Nahangi et al, 2015 andJeanclos et al, 2018;Kwiatek et al, 2018;Kwiatek et al, 2019;Li et al, 2018, capable of extending more general applications.…”

The 4th industrial revolution started in 2016 and referred to a new phase in the industrial revolution. One of the most significant technological evolvements during the 4th industrial revolution is Augmented Reality (AR) technology. AR superimposes interactional virtual objects/images to real environments. Because of the interaction and see-through characteristics, AR is better applied to engineering than Virtual Reality (VR). The application of AR in civil infrastructure can avoid artificial mistakes, improve efficiency, and saves budget. This article reviews AR applications in civil infrastructure, focusing on research studies in the latest five years (2016–2020) and their milestone developments. More than half of the AR research and implementation studies have focused on the construction domain in the last five years. Researchers deploy AR technologies in on-site construction to assist in discrepancy checking, collaborative communication, and safety checking. AR also uses building information models (BIMs) to produce detailed 3D structural information for visualization. Additionally, AR has been studied for structural health monitoring (SHM), routine and damage detection, energy performance assessment, crack inspection, excavation, and underground utility maintenance. Finally, AR has also been applied for architecture design, city plan, and disaster prediction as an essential part of smart city service. This article discusses the challenges of AR implementation in civil infrastructure and recommends future applications.
