Laser Scan in Construction

Construction Applications

BES can perform point cloud scans on live construction projects which can then be viewed by themselves or overlaid on the design model by using free, commonly used software like Trimble Connect, Tekla BIMsite, etc. 

This can then be used for:

• Recording site status and boundary conditions at the beginning of a project to quickly identify any issues which could lead to delays during the works.
• Recording completed works prior to the handover to a client.
• Capturing progress at a point in time, for analysis and future reference.
• Gathering evidential data for Party wall agreements
• Remotely surveying and recording actual quantities of materials used, e.g. calculating formwork material usage per square meter.
• Visualising site logistics clearly, with the ability to identify and measure 'pinch points'.

As a by-product of these scans, all the information needed to generate project as-builts can also be extracted without using site resources to perform surveys.
