3D Building Laser Scanning -Architectural Survey-Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is 3D laser scanning?
Ans: 3D laser scanning services use lasers to capture an object’s or area’s surface data. All of these points constitute a three-dimensional “point cloud” that can be explored, drafted and modeled in Revit and AutoCad. This technology is often used in construction to develop accurate models of buildings and other structures.Q: What are the benefits of laser scanning?
Ans: Millions of real-world data points— Laser scanning provides one of the most efficient means of collecting epic quantities of real-world data. The applications of this technology are growing rapidly as the world becomes more digitized. Construction is one field that is beginning to leverage laser scanning to its full potential.- Eliminate error—Laser scanning is an efficient and accurate way to gather data and eliminate errors in construction.

Q: Why Choose JCL Measure?
Ans: JCL Measure offers a full range of building measurement services. Our data collection includes completed as-built floor plans, architecture elements, RCP, elevations, and sections.Q: What is as-built documentation?
Ans: As-built documentation is a record of the actual construction of a project. It is used to compare the actual construction with the original design intent. The as-built drawings and specifications are used to make changes to the project during construction.
Q: What is BIM?
Ans: Building Information Modeling (BIM) is an intelligent 3D digital model representation of the physical and functional characteristics of a facility
Q: What industries does JCL-Measure serve?
Ans: JCL-Measure typically work with architects, engineers, developers, real estate professional, and building owners.
Q: What industries does JCL-Measure serve?

Q: What equipment will be used?
Ans: 3D-Scanners and Disco Laser Measuring Devices.
Q: What are the anticipated deliverables?
Ans: The drawings are delivered in CAD files, PDF, and in Revit files for 3D models.The final file format is based on client’s preference.Q: What software do you use?
Ans: Autocad and Revit.
Q: Is 3D Laser Scanning Right for My Project?
Ans: 3D laser scanning is a powerful tool that can save time and money on construction projects. By using the latest scanning technology, we have the advantage of greater speed and precision than traditional building survey methods. This allow us to accurately draw complex buildings and generate square footage to maximize overall asset value.
