BIM modeling and technical drawing

Building Information Modeling (BIM) is a methodology that uses integrated technologies and processes to collaboratively create, use, and update building information models.

BIM increases the level of reliability of projects, planning processes, construction control, and building operations, generating:

Increased Productivity

Reduced Cost

Minimizing the risks involved

Cost and Budgeting

Work Planning and Control

Lean Construction

Optimized Point Clouds and Orthophotographs

A process that is more agile and easier to work

Point cloud optimization involves applying techniques to reduce file size, improve visual quality, and ensure data accuracy.

Our solution for processing point clouds for modeling is carried out using engineering software, allowing us to obtain Views, Section Plans, and Floor Plans at various levels

This makes it easier to check measurements and other details necessary for the accurate dimensioning of components.

3D Point Cloud Technology for Criminal Investigation

Technological innovation for legal defenses.

Using the concept of point clouds generated by 3D scanners, it became possible to collect information from a crime scene.

This technology, which contributes to 3D reconstruction with detailed information, allows all dimensions of the space and the arrangement of objects to be digitally preserved and verified throughout the entire process. Point clouds capture not only shapes and geometries with millimeter precision but also the colors of the environment, resulting in a faithful digital representation of the investigated location.

3D reconstruction has been seen as a powerful tool in the hands of the legal team, providing a visual representation that can be decisive in understanding and concluding a case.

Construction Site

Our solutions and technologies, when added to the construction site, allow real-time communication between those involved, as well as planning, process monitoring, and more assertive work management.

Integrating BIM into the construction site

  • Reduce the distance between digital and industrialized production and the construction site, caused by the lack of continuity after project delivery;
  • Periodic check between the construction site and the structure BIM model;
  • Anticipate deviations, enabling decision-making that minimizes their impact on cost and deadline;
  • Scanning of the construction site using the point cloud obtained with a terrestrial scanner;
x

Analysis Reports

For robust quality control operations.

We deliver flatness analysis reports that offer several benefits, including: 

  • As-built analytics with real-time color mapping and reporting to support rapid decision-making in the field;
  • Customer defined tolerances for accuracy and precision are analyzed and delivered for quick, visual quality control checks;

Damage Map and Inspection Report

to understand the buildings condition.

Our damage map report and inspection report are carried out by our engineering team, experts in this area, who will identify and locate damage to buildings, for use in conservation, restoration, and intervention projects.

The delivered document will catalog the data and references corresponding to the condition and infrastructure of the property, detailed with photos, technical information and can be presented in plans and elevations in DWG or inserted in the BIM model, as

  • Site measurements;
  • Details of the condition of the furniture;
  • Painting;
  • Condition of electrical and hydraulic systems;
  • Presence of leaks, infiltrations, and mold;
  • Condition of floors, ceilings, and coverings;
  • Leveling and flatness;
  • Condition of doors and windows;
  • Pointing out cracks, fissures, and clefts;
  • Characterization of ceramics, glass, metals, and wood;
