3D Services

We provide a range of 3D modelling services, including 3D architectural modelling services and 3D site models, with a variety of output options. If it’s not listed below, please get in touch as we may still be able to help!

3D Building Models

We create 3D building models of existing structures that can be used for a range of different purposes. Our 3D architectural modelling services ensure these models are accurate and tailored to meet your design intent.

Our level of detail (LOD) is customisable to suit your project, ensuring you get exactly what you need, tailoring our survey to suit your project requirements.

Whether creating a massing model for context, or a highly detailed survey model for a listed building, or a combination of the two, our 3D building information modelling expertise helps you to realise the full potential of your project.

3D Site Models

We create models of the existing site topography in Revit for easy integration with other consultants’ BIM models. These 3D site models are ideal for use alongside 3D building information modelling workflows.

These are often combined with building 3D models to provide comprehensive environmental context for project development.

We can tailor 3D site models to your project requirements, for example, varying the Level of Detail over areas of the site, or running a solar study for you. Our 3D modelling services ensure that your 3D site model integrates seamlessly with architectural and engineering designs.

3D Services Models

Our team specialises in detecting and modelling above and below-ground services to create Revit-based 3D building information models of your project.

These 3D modelling services are particularly useful for clash detection and can be combined with 3D site models and building 3D models to provide a comprehensive site overview.

We do not identify which services the pipework holds in laser-scanned projects and will represent all pipe and duct work as a generic type.

2D to 3D Conversion

Converting your 2D drawings to BIM-ready outputs has never been easier!

Our team can convert your existing 2D drawings into building 3D models using Revit for improved interoperability and a smooth workflow with other consultants. This also ensures you get the best visualisation available to present to your clients.

If additional data is required, our survey teams can conduct further surveys to ensure the 3D architectural modelling services meet your needs. Engineering drawings are carefully transformed into accurate and detailed 3D building information models.

Renderings and visualisation

Presenting your project to clients in a clear and visually eye-catching way is an essential part of communicating your design.

We can provide realistic renderings not only of our survey models, but also of your building 3D models, if you need additional visuals to work with. These renderings can enhance any 3D site model or 3D architectural modelling services you are using.

Flythrough Videos

Videos are a brilliant way of quickly understanding layout, site conditions and identifying key features within a project.

We can create bespoke videos of your 3D building information modelling output to help you with all, any or more of these elements. Give us a call to discuss your needs further.

Solar Studies

Sun studies and other analysis options (such as solar, lighting, heating & cooling) are incredibly useful in design development.

They can help with understanding the impact of natural light and shadows on your 3D site model to assist in project development, as well as helping to visualise this impact clearly for your clients. These insights can be embedded in your broader 3D building information modelling process.

Sheet set-ups and scheduling

Understanding what elements already exist in your project (such as door types or window sizes) can help you efficiently plan and cost development work where these elements may need repairing or replacing.

There are a range of different schedules available that we can create in the 3D building information model for you, just let us know your requirements.

Sheet set-up is helpful if you require 2D presentation documents ready to go as part of the project deliverables. Just specify which views and scales you require, and we can include these in the 3D architectural modelling services package.
