Title: 3D Laser Scanning and BIM Modeling to Assist Columbia University’s Irving Medical Center Expansion Meta Description: GPRS’ 3D laser scanning and as-built documentation helped Columbia University plan an all-electric biomedical research facility while maintaining operations. Bottom Line: GPRS provided Kohn Kedersen Fox Associates (KPF) with an accurate BIM model and as-built drawings to complete a major renovation that expanded the Columbia University Irving Medical Center Campus. Industry: Healthcare Service: Reality Capture Deliverables: 3D Revit model, Floor Plans, Exterior Elevations, Reflected Ceiling Plans (RCP), MEP Documentation, Roof Plan, TruView Virtual Tour, .PDF files Project Application: GPRS Reality Capture at Columbia University’s Irving Medical Center Campus Location: New York, New York Task - 3D laser scan the Russ Berrie Medical Science Pavilion and School of Nursing at Columbia University in Washington Heights, Manhattan Problem - Kohn Pedersen Fox Associates (KPF) was selected to design The Roy and Diana Vagelos Innovation Laboratories, a new eight-story all-electric facility for biomedical research and laboratory use - The building needed to meet NYC’s Local Law 97 requirements and Columbia University’s 2030 greenhouse gas reduction goals - The plan includes connecting the School of Nursing and the Russ Berrie Medical Science Pavilion, so accurate as-built documentation for both structures is vital Solution - GPRS Project Managers used LiDAR-based 3D laser scanners to capture approximately 75,000 s.f. of the two interconnected buildings in greyscale - They documented the interior and exterior of the Russ Berrie Medical Science Pavilion - They also captured the School of Nursing's interior side of the exterior wall facing the parking lot - GPRS in-house Mapping & Modeling Team used the registered point cloud data to create a 3D BIM model, floor plans, reflected ceiling plans, exterior elevations, MEP documentation, and a roof plan Benefits - The as-built deliverables provided an accurate foundation for the design team to plan the renovation and expansion - 3D laser scanning was quick, safe, non-intrusive, and allowed the medical center to remain fully operational - GPRS’ suite of as-built deliverables helped the architect make sustainable design decisions, including electrification, energy efficiency, a high-performance façade, biophilic design, and collaborative spaces - The as-built documentation helped the design team plan NYC’s first university-owned research facility to operate entirely without fossil fuels and incorporates sustainability principles throughout its design and operation
