Caner Dolas (CEO of GAMMA AR) presenting the solution on the Autodesk BIM ON AIR Webinar
Autodesk monthly organizes the BIM ON AIR Webinar. An interesting and useful series that highlights innovative solutions for the construction industry and professionals.
This monthly Webinar was aired online on the 23rd of February and presented by Holger Klöcker from Autodesk Construction Solutions in German. Followed by questions from the audience and answers from the experts.
In the summary, Autodesk explains the topic of this webinar as follows:
“Augmented reality” is the term used to describe the overlaying of virtual 3D models with the real world. This technology is now opening up new possibilities on the construction site. With mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets, 3D BIM planning can be superimposed on the current construction site. This makes it possible, for example, to check the installation of technical systems directly on site or to display the pipe routing in a wall.
To present Augmented Reality on the construction site, Caner Dolas, CEO of GAMMA AR had the honor of presenting the solution.
As a reminder, GAMMA AR is an application that brings BIM Models to the construction site using augmented reality. As an example, check out the video below. You can also find all the other videos illustrating the GAMMA AR solution, as well as the tutorials, on our YouTube channel.

Discover what our clients like the most about GAMMA AR
The opinion of our clients is really important to us. This is why we are constantly collecting feedback from them, in particular to improve GAMMA AR. Enhancing and offering what is best for the construction industry is our priority. Here is the testimonial of Roland Frank, CEO of Frank Fachbauleitung GmbH that we had the chance to receive.
Roland uses GAMMA AR for the needs of his company. We had the chance to collect his experience with the software.
1. What were the reasons you tried GAMMA AR?
In all projects, the question arises as to whether the planned will also be built into the conditions on site, whether the space is available and whether the individual components can be revised. Even after the maintenance work, GAMMA AR can display the as-built model and thus make the installations located there “visible” through a closed suspended ceiling without having to open an inspection cover beforehand.
“What I like the most about GAMMA AR is […] the easy handling for all people involved in the construction project”

There are still many problems on construction sites. Loss of money, loss of time, poor coordination between professionals. GAMMA AR is dedicated to eliminating these problems. Discover the elements that affect BIM Managers and Construction Managers in their projects and how GAMMA AR solves them.
2020 has been a very special year for the construction industry. Indeed, with the health crisis of COVID-19, it has affected many projects. First, in terms of productivity due to the shutdown of many construction sites and the implementation of safety preparations and protocols that slowed down the projects in progress. But in addition to this, many problems have already been recorded and are still limiting projects. And for that, GAMMA AR exists and helps.
GAMMA AR is a construction app that brings BIM Models to the construction site using augmented reality. Prevent rework, track progress or combine multiple 3D BIM models, these are some of the features of GAMMA AR. Features that aims to help BIM Managers and Construction Managers, among other stakeholders, to save the followings tasks:
1/ Save time
According to a report of Autodesk, construction professionals lose more than 14 hours per person each week on non-optimal activities. This corresponds to 5.5 hours per week looking for project data and information, 4.7 hours per week resolving conflicts and 3.9 hours per week dealing with mistakes and rework.
GAMMA AR aims to reduce this waste of time and optimize it to avoid delays in any construction project. By bringing the BIM Models directly to the construction site, the app helps to detect errors, and thus helps to avoid or correct them, which significantly saves time.
2/ Save money
The loss of money can be caused by various reasons: expensive rework, poor productivity or poor coordination on job site, as we will discuss later. It is essential for every professional to have the right tool to makes these kinds of saving possible. This is also why GAMMA AR was created. Not only to save time, but also to save money and avoid additional costs.
As you can see with the example below, GAMMA AR could have saved 2800€ to the contractor.
14 core drillings costs 2800€
GAMMA AR helps you to prevent potential errors (and costs) by visualizing the 3D BIM / VDC information before building it in reality.
3/ Better coordination on site
Coordination on a construction site is the keystone of any project. Poor communication between the different stakeholders of a project causes what we have seen above: a waste of money and time.
Indeed, according to a report, for almost 70% of contractors: missing deadlines and running over budget is caused because of poor job site coordination.
Also the Autodesk report announces that on average, 52% of all rework globally is caused by poor data and miscommunication. This corresponds to more than half of the rework. In conclusion, we can confirm the importance of good communication and coordination between the members of a team to successfully complete a construction project.
GAMMA AR aims to connect the field with the office, to enable better communication on the construction site as well as in the offices. With the GAMMA BIM PORTAL, we provide an intuitive and easy way to connect the construction site with all the stakeholders of a project in real time.
81% of contractors say that, in general, software helps them complete projects on time and under budget. As you can see, GAMMA AR is the solution for all your problems and construction projects. Have a look at the testimonials of those who have already tested GAMMA AR.

Why GAMMA AR is the most powerful construction app in your pocket?
GAMMA AR has many features to help construction managers and manufacturers monitoring on site and having all control of their construction process. Here are four reasons why GAMMA AR is the most powerful construction app in your pocket, and you should go with it now with a 30-day free trial.
1/ Brings BIM Models intuitively to the site
Working with GAMMA AR is the end of disorganized work where it seems complicated to find your way around.
With GAMMA AR solution, you can say goodbye to paperwork and welcome all your plans in one technologic device. The application uses the data contained in Building Information Models to overlay the worksite using augmented reality using mobile devices.
2/ Connect field and office in real time
Connecting the field and the office in real time in construction is important. Something which is difficult when you do not have the adequate equipment. Thanks to the GAMMA AR application and GAMMA BIM PORTAL, all stakeholders can be involved easily in a project. All the information added in the application is synchronized with the office in real-time.
The application enables Construction site Managers, Facility Managers, BIM Managers, Architects, and other stakeholders to monitor the construction site and their progress.
The GAMMA BIM Portal connects the site to the office. It allows Planners and Project Managers to manage their projects, distribute files and assign tasks, due dates, and revisions states. This way, it facilitates the communication between stakeholders at different stages of the construction process.
3/ Prevent errors and rework
Finding construction errors early is a crucial step, as costs and time to fix errors can drastically increase if the errors remains undetected. More rework causes more expensive adjustments. GAMMA AR avoids this!
By visualizing the 3D BIM information before building, the application prevents the potential errors that you can see after building. With the application, errors on the construction site and in the BIM model can easily be detected and prevented from happening at early stages of the building process.
