Scope of Work:

The project comprised the following key buildings and features:

  1. Scan to Revit Workflow

  2. Architectural BIM Model – LOD 300

  3. Design Development Drawing Set

Client Inputs

→ Scanned data of the existing structure.
→ Marked demolition plans and proposed layout modifications.
→ Specific requirements for Design Development drawing sets.
→ Architectural and structural detailing expectations.

Project Description

Overview

This project, though small in scale, was rich in detail and technical requirements. Our primary task was to create a highly accurate 3D Revit model representing existing site conditions using scan data, followed by integrating client-specified demolition and renovation elements.

Challenges

Data Interpretation: Translating raw point cloud data into a precise LOD 300 Revit model required careful attention to detail and robust quality checks.

Coordination Gaps: Limited architectural drawings meant cross-referencing scan data with client inputs was essential to avoid assumptions.

Design Clarity: Incorporating client-provided design changes with minimal iterations while ensuring adherence to accessibility and code compliance standards was critical.

Timeline Management: Balancing high-detail modeling and documentation within a compressed timeline posed a scheduling challenge.

 

Final Outcome

 

  • LOD 300 Revit Model for Architectural & Structural disciplines
  • Design Development Documentation Set, including:
➢ Cover Page
➢ Code Review & Code Plan
➢ Accessibility & ADA Information
➢ Partition & Assembly Details
➢ Existing, Demolition, and Proposed Floor Plans
➢ Reflected Ceiling Plans (RCPs)
➢ Elevations (All Sides)
➢ Building Sections
➢ Enlarged Plans & Interior Elevations
➢ Staircase Details

Output Delivered
