3D Models

3D modelled construction is the scanning of buildings or structures and the translation of them into 3D digital models. This allows designers, architects and construction professionals to manipulate or change the model to suit new designs for redevelopment. 3D modelling is an ideal format to illustrate proposed new landscapes and buildings.

Our measured building surveyors scan a structure and create a 3D digital point cloud rendition. This allows exact measured points to be interrogated for every part of the structure. In many cases, our clients use raw point cloud data for their designs but often the point cloud is translated into a 3D model AutoCAD file which can be used in AutoCAD 3D Civils, Architecture, Revit or other 3D software packages.

Key Benefits

Projects kept on track and within budget through interrogation of measured points
Improved communication between our clients and their customer
Designs can be created using actual measurements for exact project costing
Clash detection and construction issues ironed out at design stage
Reduced material wastage due to exact project costing

Back to Services

We have worked with the team at Powers in the past and know that the company provides a thorough and professional service. These surveys are very important to our work, as the more information we have, the better the plans that we produce are. Information like the location and depth of different utilities, and the materials that they are made from, all help inform the final designs.
