Abstract

<p><em>The assessment of augmented reality's application in construction project delivery was the focus of the study. One hundred eighty-three (183) sets of questionnaires were distributed in total; of these, 164 replies were received, of which 124 were deemed genuine and utilized in the analysis. For the study, the simple random sampling technique was used, the IBM SPSS Statistics version 25.0 was used to analyze field data, while the statistical tools used in analyzing the field data ate frequency, mean, and standard deviation. The study found out that majority of the study respondents had 12 to 15 years of work experience. They are actively engaged in projects, assuming increasing responsibilities, and contributing significantly to the execution and management of construction initiatives. The study further the showed that the respondents are members of a number of professional associations, including the Estate Surveyors and Valuers Registration Board of Nigeria (ESVARBON), the Council for the Regulation of Buildings in Nigeria (CORBON), the Nigerian Institute of Architects (NIA), the Nigerian Institute of Quantity Surveyors (NIQS), and the Chartered Institute of Personnel Management of Nigeria (CIPMN). The findings revealed that AR can substantially enhance project delivery by minimizing errors and improving coordination. The study recommends the implementation targeted communication and training programs to dispel misconceptions surrounding AR technology as well as engaging in discussions to streamline regulatory processes that may pose barriers to AR adoption, ensuring a supportive environment for technological advancement</em></p>
