Precise As-Built Conditions of Church and School

GPRS captures 2-4 millimeter accurate measurements of the complex geometry of every high ceiling & wall, delicate window, sacred item, office, classroom, and more without contact from the ground.
A Denver Catholic church and school constructed in the 1950’s requested 3D laser scanning of their 56,000 sq ft three-building campus to plan for renovations. Our client was an architecture, planning and interior design firm specializing in commercial, institutional and academic design.

Location: Denver, Colorado Task: A Denver Catholic church and school constructed in the 1950’s requested 3D laser scanning of their 56,000 sq ft three-building campus to plan for renovations. Our client was an architecture, planning and interior design firm specializing in commercial, institutional and academic design. Problem: Construction documents existed from the original build, but the client was unsure if they were up to date. Each building required a different scanning scope. The church and parish hall required complete exterior and interior documentation, while the school required only exterior documentation. The church required new design drawings and cost estimates from the firm before proceeding with renovations. Solution: In one day on-site, a GPRS/TruePoint Project Manager completed 359 scans with the Leica P50 ScanStation and the RTC360 laser scanner. The client required point cloud files, 2D CAD drawings, a 3D Revit model, and TruViews to understand the existing conditions of the buildings on campus. 2D CAD exterior elevations and floor plans of the church; and exterior elevations of the school were created for this project. An LOD 200 Revit 2021 3D model of the church was delivered with architectural/structural details, including columns, beams, walls, floors, ceilings, doors, windows, stairs, roof, pews, lectern, and alter. An LOD 200 Revit model was delivered of the school exterior. Benefits: Renovations are not new to this campus; they recently added an outdoor learning lab and eucharistic adoration chapel. They understand the value of accurate as-built data. The firm wanted to keep the historic craftsmanship of the church but provide modern updates. A quality point cloud created a reliable as-built BIM model of existing conditions with ¼ inch accuracy tolerance.

Scan-to-BIM of 15-Story Structure

The cost avoidance impact of the integrated scan-to-BIM workflow saved the project an estimated 5% of the total contract amount, a savings of approximately $1,500,000.
GPRS provided 3D laser scanning and modeling services for a 15-story structure in the greater Cincinnati, Ohio area. This included 8 floors of commercial space, 2 stories of retail, 5 levels of parking garage, as well as the exterior façade and roof surface. The GPRS Project Manager captured over 1.54 million square-feet of space, and in-house engineers created a custom Revit model based on the point cloud of the existing conditions. Once construction was complete, this project received the 2017 Build Ohio Award for New Construction Over $30 million.

Laser Scanning Expedites Airport Renovations

GPRS provided 3D laser scanning services for John Glenn International Airport in Columbus, Ohio. The client was upgrading the existing airport entrance. Renovations included the installation of a prefabricated ceiling panel system and new doors. The primary objective of the laser scan was to capture the ground, curbs, ceiling beams, and related structural features to design and prefabricate the upgrades.

John Glenn International Airport – Columbus, Ohio Airport Entrance Upgrades Requires 3D Laser Scanning ‍ TASK: GPRS provided 3D laser scanning services for John Glenn International Airport in Columbus, Ohio. The client was upgrading the existing airport entrance. Renovations included the installation of a prefabricated ceiling panel system and new doors. The primary objective of the laser scan was to capture the ground, curbs, ceiling beams, and related structural features to design and prefabricate the upgrades. ‍ CHALLENGE: The client had a 60-day window to complete renovations, and no in-house engineers. The airport entrance did not match the architectural drawing; the ceiling structure was sloped where the drawings showed it level, and differing beam heights and widths between two levels of the airport created additional challenges. They needed accurate as builts to tie the upgrades to the existing structure and align with the camber of the structure. The client also had to deliver precise measurements to the ceiling panel system prefabricator and to provide the builders of the custom doors precise measurements on entryways. This would minimize any assumptions that could lead to field changes and schedule delays during construction. ‍ SOLUTION: The airport, which serves 7 million annual travelers, needed to remain in operation with little to no interruption of services. So, 3D laser scanning was completed at night during low passenger activity periods, so the airport could remain in operation. The GPRS Mapping & Modeling Team worked closely with the client to create maps and models to expedite components and minimize inaccuracies. 2D CAD drawings, and a 3D BIM model were delivered, which eliminated field adjustments and delays during renovations. The laser scan data also helped the client to plan how the new entrance would tie into the existing entrance, while taking into account all of the field variables.
