In the world of digital documentation for buildings, labeling an as-built model as a BIM doesn't necessarily make it one. In this post, we explore the specific requirements that must be met for an as-built model to be considered a true BIM.
Reducing the unforeseen conditions on renovation, adaptive reuse, and historic preservation projects is critical for the success of the project. Here are the most valuable reality capture solutions to help you protect your profits and reduce re-work.
Despite all its features, the RTC360’s Achilles heel is the lack of a dual-axis compensator. Improve the levelness of your registration by following 8 simple steps.
In March 2021 I had the pleasure to be a panelist on the Scan-to-BIM University Webinar. Some of the questions we received after the live session were related to best practices for improving registrations of building exteriors. Since such a topic would have helped me when I started adopting 3D Laser Scanning in 2010, I want to share what I have learned over the last 11 years of scanning. My hope is that you would benefit from my experience and together we can improve the building documentation practice.
