Abstract
The method involves projecting layout information on a working surface of a construction work. The projected layout information is obtained from a model, such as a Building Information Model (BIM), of a portion at least of the construction work. It includes first graphical information depicting a reference feature visible on the working surface, and second graphical information designating locations for installation of construction elements. The locations are linked, in the model, to the reference feature depicted by the first graphical information. In response to a user action of selecting the first graphical information and a geometric transformation, the projected first graphical information and second graphical information are shifted together in accordance with the selected transformation.
