3D Laser Scanning a Historic Church for Restoration

To complete the restoration of the church, the client required accurate 2D CAD drawings with precise measurements of the structural and architectural elements.
Our client needed accurate as built documentation to complete a $1.2 million restoration and improvement project for a historic church. The 1875-built church in Glandorf, Ohio was the largest Roman Catholic church built at the time. Built in Neo-Gothic style, it contained a 225-foot spire, beautiful statues imported from Austria and stained-glass windows imported from Germany. In 2017, the church underwent a 3-month historic restoration and improvement project. The project involved preventive measures including fiber-glassing the interior walls, painting and installing updated storm windows to protect the stained glass. In addition, damaged sections of the archway and niches were repaired, and a ceiling was lowered in the vestibule to highlight a stained-glass window.
GPRS’ client needed accurate as-built documentation to complete a $1.2 million restoration and improvement project for a historic church.
Our client provides historic restoration services and is dedicated to providing excellence in conservation and restoration. To complete the restoration of the church, the client required accurate CAD drawings with precise measurements of the structural and architectural elements. With a Leica P40 laser scanner, GPRS quickly captured the structural and architectural details of the church’s interior with92 laser scans. 3D laser scanning captured full spatial and color data with high detail and precision. Laser scanning can capture extreme detail for even the most intricate buildings easily. 3D laser scanning delivered a valuable data set to the client. Intensity map point cloud files provided digital visualization. 2D CAD drawings were created from accurate scan data. From skyscrapers to sewer lines, GPRS Intelligently Visualizes The Built World® to keep your projects on time, on budget, and safe.

GPRS 3D Laser Scans Gas Processing and Transportation Components

The level of detail provided to the client in both the 3D laser scan data and 3D BIM model exceeded expectations and helped the client to expedite fabrication drawings.
An electrical, mechanical, and fabrication construction services company requested 3D laser scanning and BIM modeling services to capture point cloud data and generate a 3D model of the inlet and outlet flange information for 27 natural gas separator units and 64 meter/regulation skids. A GPRS Project Manager captured detailed flange information, including bolt hole orientation, elevation information, and pitch of flanges with a 3D laser scanner. Then, using the point cloud data collected, the GPRS Mapping & Modeling Team generated a 3D model of each skid’s flange information. This information will be used by the client for prefabrication, with the goal of minimizing field changes during installation.

3D BIM Model Aids Wastewater Treatment Plant Heat Exchanger Upgrades

Our client required a high-detail 3D BIM model to accurately visualize, design, modify, and manage the update of a heat exchanger within a Wastewater Treatment facility, enabling efficient updates and modifications without the need for extensive on-site measurements or manual drafting.
GPRS was called to 3D laser scan the Southerly Wastewater Treatment Plant and render an LOD 300 BIM model of the three-level heat exchanger for ABC Piping Co. to update one of the systems.
GPRS 3D laser scanned the Southerly Wastewater Treatment Plant to develop a LOD 300 3D BIM model for ABC Piping Co. to update one of the heat exchangers at the facility.
Highlights THE BOTTOM LINE Our client required a high-detail 3D BIM model to accurately visualize, design, modify, and manage the update of a heat exchanger within a Wastewater Treatment facility, enabling efficient updates and modifications without the need for extensive on-site measurements or manual drafting. INDUSTRY Water Treatment Plant & Wastewater Treatment Plant SERVICE 3D Laser Scanning; Mapping & Modeling LOCATION Cleveland, Ohio PM Insight The Leica RTC360 can generate 3D point clouds in less than 2 minutes, delivering our clients quick data visualization for project planning. The Leica RTC360 scans in color, which is useful when you need a true representation of a site in color detail. Deliverables LOD 300 3D BIM Model Task GPRS was called to 3D laser scan the Southerly Wastewater Treatment Plant and render an LOD 300 BIM model of the three-level heat exchanger for ABC Piping Co. to update one of the systems. PROBLEM Our client desired to upgrade the heat exchanger to reduce maintenance, energy consumption, and overall operational expenses in the long term. To properly design, prefabricate, and install system updates, ABC Piping Co. required a detailed 3D BIM model of the current mechanical and piping system, including pipe sizes, materials, and routing. Solution GPRS partnered with ABC Piping Co. to 3D laser scan and model the heat exchanger at the Southerly Wastewater Treatment Plant for upgrades. GPRS utilized the Leica RTC360 laser scanner to capture as-built conditions from 3 different floors around the existing heat exchangers. 108 laser scans were taken with the RTC360 from different locations to capture the intricate details of this very dense mechanical facility. The 3D BIM model provideed a detailed and accurate representation of the existing heat exchangers within the facility, enabling engineers and designers to clearly understand the spatial relationships, constraints, and interdependencies between various components. Benefits 3D laser scanning captured precise layout, dimensions, and locations of the existing architectural, structural, MEP, FP, and HVAC system elements for this facility in a point cloud. The GPRS Mapping & Modeling team transformed point cloud data into an intelligent 3D BIM model to aid system engineering. A 3D BIM model saved in a shared environment allowed all disciplines to work together to identify and resolve clashes before the system integration begins, ensuring a smooth retrofit with minimal rework. ‍
