3D Building Models

3D Building Models

3D survey, revit model, BIM model, Point cloud survey, cloud point survey

We can model existing buildings, which can then be used to develop the design, for presentation purposes and as the basis for Working Drawings.

High levels of details are often needed for listed elements and high level retrofit or refurbishment. Lower levels are best for strip-outs or basic remodelling works.

We can tailor our survey to suit your project requirements , for example picking out key elements to a higher level of detail, identifying certain fixed furnishings or MEP, or focusing on the structural elements in particular.

More Details

LOD 1 – Massing Model

Laser Surveys most basic detail level:

Overall shape of external building envelope

LOD2 – Outline Model

Outline details only:

Major walls, columns, floors, ceilings & roofs, with openings.

LOD3-standard Detail Model

Laser Surveys generic families of doors, windows, stairs, ramps and balustrades.

Generic families based upon overall dimensions for fixtures, fittings, and architectural features.

LOD4-High Detail Model

Laser Surveys project specific families of doors, windows, stairs, ramps and balustrades.

Project specific families based upon more detailed dimensions for fixtures, fittings, materials and architectural features.

Considerations for Building Models

You may require specific elements of your project in a different level of detail to that specified for the overall building, for example if certain elements are listed or require more detailed modelling due to renovation works. Other elements may need to be shown but are not the focus of the works and can be shown in a lower detail.
