Point Cloud + Revit Model

When Dimeo Construction embarked on converting an old Sears department store into astate-of-the-art casino for Mint Gaming, they turned to us for the precise data necessary tonavigate the challenges of outdated structural blueprints and complex designrequirements.

The challenge

Outdated Documentation: Original blueprints lacked updates for undocumented modifications over time, making them unreliable for design and construction.

Precise Structural Requirements: Following demolition, exposed structural steel required detailed measurement, especially at connection points, to ensure accurate fabrication of new steel elements.

Comprehensive VDC Support:Accurate existing conditions models were essentialfor Dimeo’s VDC team and their MEP-FP subcontractors to conduct clash detectionand ensure smooth integration of systems.

As-Built Documentation: The project demanded as-built 3D documentation forfinal delivery, further emphasizing the need for precision and reliability.

About the project

Our Solution

Post-Demolition Reality Capture: We conducted detailed LiDAR scans of the exposed steel framework, capturing every detail and generating a highly accurate point cloud for design and analysis.

Cintoo Platform Integration: The point cloud was hosted on Cintoo, enabling American Steel Fabricators to measure and annotate remotely, streamlining the drafting process and reducing errors.

Advanced QAQC Process: Using the Cintoo platform, we rigorously verified the 3DRevit models against the point cloud, identifying and correcting inaccuracies todeliver precise results.

Revit Model for VDC and Documentation: We provided an LOD 300 Revit model,supporting Dimeo’s VDC team and MEP-FP subcontractors in clash detection and coordination, while also serving as the foundation for final as-built documentation.

The results

Accurate Fabrication: ASF utilized precise point cloud data to design and fabricate steel elements that seamlessly integrated with the existing structure.

Streamlined VDC Coordination: The Revit model enabled effective clash detectionand analysis, minimizing construction conflicts and ensuring system compatibility.

Cost-Effective Efficiency: Accurate data reduced drafting time, fabrication errors,and installation risks, resulting in significant time and cost savings.

Comprehensive As-Built Records: The final Revit model delivered by us ensuredthat Dimeo met their documentation requirements with precision and confidence.

OAR’s team has been great to work with throughout multiple large-scale scan to BIM projects. High attention to detail, accurate scan data, proper BIM implementation and consistent communication/support from OAR has helped to improve our project quality and efficiency from start to finish.

I hired OAR to do a pre-construction scan to point cloud mesh and 2D CAD of my new building. I am glad I did… with Jon and Ryan this business goes above and beyond

OAR attacks their projects methodically & professionally asking detailed questions regarding our final needs to fabricate. End result was a spectacular fit of formed powder coated aluminum angle under our cable guardrail system. Can’t wait to work with OAR on the next project!
