ABOUT THE AS-BUILT SCANNING PROCESS​

​

​

The first step in completing a renovation, improvement, or addition to a commercial or residential space is to document what is currently existing.

 

  This process of documenting the "As-Built" conditions is typically a painstaking, lengthy procedure, which requires a designer in the field taking hand measurements in order to translate the existing conditions into a CAD or Revit format.

 

This can often be an additional service, or charged hourly which often takes time and money.

​

KANON ARCHITECTS is able to mitigate those costs and that time by providing 3D Scanned As-Built Modeling Services. 

 

Our technician in the field will:

​

  • PERFORM A SCAN WITH OUR LIDAR LASER SCANNER

​

  • CREATE A POINT CLOUD

​

  • CREATE A REVIT MODEL

 

  • CREATE EXISTING DRAWINGS OF THE SPACE

​

This process is highly accurate, relying on digital data and photography rather than notes and hand measurements.  The end product of a full Revit model also saves time, money, and fee from any design professionals you as a client decide to hire.

INDUSTRIAL EXAMPLE

​

THIS SERVICE IS FOR : 

​​

  • Owners trying to produce Record Drawings

​

  • Owners performing due diligence

​

  • Contractors trying to coordinate sub-contracted services

  • Developers trying to have existing conditions data to pass off to design professionals

​

Kanon Architects is different from other scanning companies.  We are Architects.  We are General Contractors.  

 

Some firms will deliver 3D models that reflect existing massing, but do not take into account architectural tectonics.   

 

Kanon Architects is able to interpret large massing for what they are in order to deliver the best modeled BIM file possible.  No paper thin floors, dimension-less ceilings, 5 foot thick walls, or modeled--in-place fascia boards will be found in our models.  We interpret the existing conditions for what they likely are, with wall systems and assemblies.
