Point Cloud BIM Case study – Residential Building, USA

2200 Mistletoe Ave was a point cloud conversion project involving As-built modeling services from Advenser Engineering. This single storied residential building situated in the USA for which the client had a requirement for the creation of architectural As built 3D model from the point cloud data of the house exterior including a set of 11 scans. These scans were registered and combined into single point cloud containing 163.46 million points, the size of which was 8.72GB. Advenser’s architectural and structural team executed the BIM project in Autodesk Revit Architecture 2013 & AutoCAD 2013. Inputs from the client team included Laser cloud data in .pts format and FARO scanned photographs of the building. Team Advenser delivered an as-built 3D model in .rvt format & .dwg format. Autodesk Revit Architecture 2013 was used for point cloud conversion. It was also exported to cad format using AutoCAD 2013.
