Project Description
Euler Engineering was engaged to undertake high-accuracy 3D laser scanning and detailed scan-to-BIM modelling of a significant heritage building. The objective was to create a reliable digital as-built model capturing the building’s architectural character, roof geometry, and internal layouts to support conservation, refurbishment, and future design works.
Scope & Methodology
-
Performed comprehensive 3D laser scanning of the building exterior and interior
-
Captured complex heritage features including ornate façades, brickwork, roof forms, dormers, chimneys, and decorative architectural elements
-
Processed scan data into a clean, registered point cloud representing true site conditions
-
Developed a detailed architectural BIM model directly from the scan data
-
Modelled roof geometry, façades, openings, and internal levels with alignment to existing heritage fabric
-
Produced sectional and elevation views to support documentation, approvals, and design coordination
Outcome & Value
-
Delivered a highly accurate digital as-built representation of a complex heritage structure
-
Enabled architects and consultants to confidently plan restoration and adaptive reuse works
-
Preserved critical heritage geometry while providing a modern BIM-ready asset
-
Reduced risk associated with undocumented conditions and irregular geometry
-
Minimized the need for repeat site visits and intrusive investigations
Accuracy
-
Millimetre-level accuracy achieved through laser scanning
-
Model suitable for architectural coordination, structural design, and refurbishment planning
