Point Cloud To BIM For Educational Center

Hi-Tech's VDC Capabilities Enable Effective Facility Management
Case Study Highlights
The Client
Industry:

Surveying and engineering industry

Location:

London, UK

The Objective:
Convert 3D scanned images of an educational center into
an information rich, intelligent BIM
The Solution:
All the scanned data in .pcg format was imported into Revit
and surfaces were restructured, to create an intelligent BIM
with LOD 300 with architectural and structure disciplines.

BIM is increasingly seen by large building owners as the best way to

document building data. The capabilities of BIM are further
leveraged to achieve greater efficiencies in facility management,
increase occupant comfort and reduce the cost and time required for
renovations and refurbishments. Scan to BIM is the most accurate
and convenient way to create a BIM for an 'As Built' environment for
large buildings.
One of the most reputed surveying company based in London, UK,
approached Hi-Tech for its BIM requirements. The client had
surveyed an educational center and wanted to convert the point
cloud data to BIM. Almost 300 scans were done to capture every
section of the building, .pcg input files were provided and modeling
architecture and structure disciplines with 10mm accuracy with an
LOD 300 was requested.

The Challenges:
?
Managing huge volumes of scanned data files and

working with them

The Solution
?
The scanned data was extremely heavy. It consisted of nearly 300

?
Rectifying the inconsistencies in scanned data and

recreating the missing scanned data using engineering

assumptions
?
Completion of the project that demanded complex

modeling, complete with architectural and structural

details, within a very tight deadline

scans and several photometric images

?
All these .pcg files were was imported into Revit and divided into

sections to set up a model file

?
A team of modelers worked in shifts to restructure the entire

building with all the architectural and structural details

?
10mm accuracy modeling was done and within 24 days, an

Technology / Software Used:

Revit, Recap

intelligent BIM with LOD 300 was created

?
Scanned data for some parts of the building was missing and

Benefits
?
Renovation for a major section of the educational facility
became easy, the basic structure was retained and the client
saved around 20% costs on renovation due to the availability of
well documented information

the one available had a lot of inconsistencies

?
At this point, the team communicated with the client and

restructured the missing parts based on engineering

assumptions and using the reference images

?
Information rich, intelligent BIM,

provided a thorough
documentation of the as built structure

?
This further improved the operations and management of the

educational center
