When we think of VDC we often think of new builds with data rich models and all of the opportunities that they provide us. Reality capture technology has presented us with that same level of opportunity on any renovation project as well. I will present how our team used laser scanning to improve the renovation of a heritage planetarium; How it sped up as-builts dimensioning and shop drawing creationg, how it increased confidence in the final designs, and how it allowed us to have a zero wait time install. We will then discuss how this process can be applied to any renovation project. This presentation will review the use the BLK 360, Recap Pro, Bloom Cloud Engine, and point clouds in AutoCAD. It will teach you how to speed up design, as-built dimension (reducing travel), verifying design, and simplify install.Learning objectives:
My name is Hunter Etherington, I work for Chandos Construction Ltd as a VDC coordinator. I am an architectural technologist by trade, but my work experience has taken me through a manufacturer and now to a general contractor with time as a BIM educator in between.
I have developed BIM education curriculum for private companies as well as construction associations.
My experience from the supplier side and now from the General Contracting side has given me a unique experience collaborating at both ends of the supply chain.
