Resumo

This article explores the integration of technologies, particularly Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs), in the field of Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC), with specific emphasis on the Brazilian context. In a globally interconnected society, the adoption of ICT has reshaped traditional practices, promoting new modes of interaction and dissemination of knowledge. AEC professionals are transitioning from knowledge holders to mediators, facilitating the collaborative construction of knowledge. Despite challenges such as uneven technological adoption, Brazil is witnessing a rapid expansion in the use of technology in the educational and professional sectors. The COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated the computerization process, highlighting the importance of technology in several industries, including Architecture. The article investigates the transformative potential of Building Information Modeling (BIM) and Virtual Reality (VR) technologies in architectural practices. BIM, a multidimensional virtual model that integrates geometric and construction data, revolutionizes collaboration between architects, engineers, and builders, streamlining the flow of information and enhancing visualization capabilities. VR complements BIM by offering immersive simulations, facilitating a deeper understanding of architectural designs throughout the entire project lifecycle. The study investigates how BIM and VR tools improve the understanding of architectural design from conception to construction, addressing key implementation considerations and the evolving role of professionals in adapting to technological advances. Through empirical analysis, the article elucidates the tangible benefits and challenges of adopting these technologies in AEC, paving the way for more rigorous and efficient design, planning, and project management processes. Immersion in the virtual environment with the participation of architects and engineers was carried out. The modeling of a real residence using the oculus was developed. The results point to the innovation achieved using virtual reality and BIM for AEC.
