Laser Scanning & Existing Conditions Modeling
ROI
Accurate Background Drawings & Models, Expedited Engineering & Construction Schedule.
Project SQFT :
40,000 sqft
Scope
Existing Condition Laser Scanning, Documentation, Revit Modeling & Slab Flatness Diagram
SCOPE OF WORK
The scope of work included point cloud laser scanning generation of a 3D Revit model and subsequent 2D AutoCAD drawings representing the existing architectural, structural and mechanical systems that remained in the space after demolition had been completed. Elite CAD Designs ultimately produced a complete set of 2D AutoCAD drawings that included an accurate floor plan, reflected ceiling plans, elevation drawings, section drawings and a colorized floor flatness diagram. The explorable walkthroughs run from any smartphone, tablet or PC; our modelers can navigate through the space as if they were actually on site. The walkthrough accelerates our entire process helping us to turn out a better product in less time.
The Solution: Customer & Team Interface:
We delivered a 3D virtual explorable walkthrough tours of the worksite within 24 hours of our first visit, providing the richest data set and deliverables in the most expedient turnaround possible. This reduced risk, saved time & money, as well as providing the team with heightened coordination and communication.
The Results/ Benifits:
We provide our clients with the richest data set and deliverables in the most expedient turnaround possible. We deliver 3D virtual explorable walkthrough tours of the worksite within 24 hours of our first visit.
This virtual walkthrough saves time and money; the ability to walk a space and have many remote project stakeholders experience the same immersive 3D virtual tour heightens the level of communication and coordination among remote teams. Conveniently shareable with anyone, you can also share direct links to specific locations within the site, so that the walkthrough opens up on a predetermined location. This is an invaluable tool for project management, calling out punch-list items and communicating RFI’s.
Return On Investment (ROI): Reduced Risk
We utilize technology to work smarter, communicate concisely and complete work on time and under budget. On this project we were able to turn over a complete set of 2D drawings, a 3D model, a 3D virtual tour, a point cloud laser scan and a slab flatness and levelness diagram within 72 hours of having visited the worksite. The return on investment for our clients can be measured, more work completed in less time, effective communication and precision measurement means better engineering and no costly construction conflicts with the existing conditions.
