3D Laser Scanning Services in Idaho

A comprehensive site scan, delivering utility maps and a 3D BIM model allowed the architect to plan precise renovations to the stadium’s layout, from design changes and material selection, to cost estimation and construction phasing, with ease.

GPRS provided above and below-ground as-built data to Florida State University’s Doak Campbell Stadium, including subsurface utility maps, and an architectural/structural 3D BIM model that the client could access via our SiteMap GIS Platform. A $255-million-dollar renovation project required accurate data to update the stadium seating with founder’s boxes and a field level club.

BIM Model Aids Design Renovations for Stadium A BIM model provided the stadium owners a better understanding of the design updates. Tallahassee, Florida Task: An architect requested an ArchiCAD BIM model of a college football stadium to create renovation construction documents. Problem: A vast amount of space required as-built documentation, over 600,000 sq. ft. needed 3D laser scanned and modeled. The renovation changes were complex. A BIM model was needed to provide the stadium owners a better understanding of the architecture and design updates. Our client needed a single source of data, where all architects on the team could see the latest design and document their changes. Solution: The exterior and interior of the stadium were 3D laser scanned with 2-4 millimeter precision, including three concourse levels, stadium seating, and suites. TruePoint delivered an intensity map point cloud, TruView viewer files, and a Revit 2021 3D model of the stadium. Working from precise details in the 3D model, renovations can be designed right the first time, saving time and costly change orders. Benefits: The architect utilizes the Building Information Modeling (BIM) process to provide their clients a better understanding of the complexities of architecture and design. Technical construction drawings (floor plan views, elevation views, cross-sections, iso-metric representations, etc.) can be effortlessly created from the 3D BIM model and shared with all disciplines. A BIM model allows architects to plan precise renovations, from design changes and material selection, to cost estimation and construction phasing.

3D Laser Scanning

Providing both a 3D BIM model and a 2D reflected ceiling plan allowed various trades and MEP professionals to work without disturbing each other's timelines, to finish the project with fewer mistakes, reworks, and less cost.

Use 3D laser scanning to create a BIM model for new construction coordination in Paoli, Pennsylvania.

GPRS provided a detailed Revit 3D BIM model and reflected ceiling plan to keep a large project on schedule and reduce clashes and reworks.

Only the building shell existed, but did include the foundation, structural skeleton, columns, beams, and fire suppression system pipingA BIM model was requested to complete the design, minimize clashes, and plan for field coordinationThe VDC engineer wanted each trade to be able to conduct their specific work without interference from other trades A 3D Revit model was created from the point cloud with standard detail that included architectural, structural, and MEP featuresA reflected ceiling plan, an architectural drawing that shows visible objects located on the ceiling of a space, was delivered for MEP coordination2D plans and 3D models allowed this client to complete the design, communicate the scope of work to each trade, and efficiently schedule work to be completed Model-based implementations are the foundation of our client’s VDC department. They plan site layout and work sequencing for efficient logistics and safety.Because the VDC engineer received an accurate as-built model to place all building components and MEP into, they were able to effectively plan and communicate to minimize trade interference, clashes, installation problems, rework, and additional costs

3D Laser Scanning

Capturing basic structural and architectural features will immensely help the architect in planning the hotel renovations.

A hotel developer plans to invest $30 million to renovate a 200-room hotel in downtown Toledo, Ohio. GPRS performed laser scanning services to aid this client in the renovation. GPRS 3D laser scanned the exterior elevation, basement, main lobby level, 2nd floor and elevator shaft – more than 30,000 square feet of space. All structural and architectural features were captured as part of the scan.

A hotel developer plans to invest $30 million to renovate a 200-room hotel in downtown Toledo, Ohio.

A hotel developer plans to invest $30 million to renovate a 200-room hotel in downtown Toledo, Ohio. Case Study: 3D Laser Scanning Aids In Hotel Renovation Location: Toledo, Ohio TASK: A hotel developer plans to invest $30 million to renovate a 200-room hotel in downtown Toledo, Ohio. GPRS performed laser scanning services to aid this client in the renovation. GPRS 3D laser scanned the exterior elevation, basement, main lobby level, 2nd floor and elevator shaft – more than 30,000 square feet of space. All structural and architectural features were captured as part of the scan. PROBLEM: No accurate as-built drawings existed. It would have been difficult, costly and time consuming to manually measure the 19-story building. The developer was not local, making transportation and lodging an added expense. Safety was also a concern, as the building was partially demolished and contained asbestos. SOLUTION: GPRS quickly mobilized to the site and captured the existing conditions of the hotel. Using a P40 survey-grade Leica ScanStation, the local GPRS Project Manager tied the data to survey control, achieved 2-4mm accuracy, and mitigated movement, ensuring level scans. The client received .rcs Intensity Map Point Cloud files, 2D AutoCAD Floor Plans, 2D Point Cloud Sheets, a 3D Revit 2017 LOD 100 Model and TruViews. To save costs and expedite this project, only the unique floors of the hotel were laser scanned. Capturing the basic structural and architectural features will immensely help the architect in planning the hotel renovations. Laser scanning quickly captured precise data while avoiding the risk of the unsafe environment. GPRS collected all building information, eliminating the need to return to the site for additional measurements. For 3D laser scanning of hotels and other resort properties, contact GPRS. GPRS Intelligently Visualizes The Built World® for customers, nationwide. What can we help you visualize? GPRS 3D laser scanned the exterior elevation, basement, main lobby level, 2nd floor and elevator shaft – more than 30,000 square feet of space. GPRS CAD designers developed a 3D Revit 2017 LOD 100 Model for the client to plan the renovation. Point cloud of 2nd floor. LOD 100 Model close-up of basement and 1st floor beams.
