Architectural engineers need to acquire necessary knowledge and practiceduring their education.Some of these elements are theoretical, others are manual and creative, but there is also a place for visiting construction sites. During such visits students see theory in practice, observe the hierarchy of construction elements, and understand the relationship between sizes and loads of building elements. But it is now hard to obtain approval from private construction site managers to visit with students, because of the assumed responsibility and insurance issues.However, by combining the observing of an area on the screen of a mobile device with a building information model of an existing building, it is possible to create an enhanced reality view in real time. Tripping through a building with such a tool is safe and even more valuable than visiting an actual construction site, since the building information modelling (BIM) data can be modified for 3D presentations of different materials and technologies. Such a tool also could be usedfor other professional areas.
