Introduction
In the realm of architectural and design endeavours, precision is paramount. Whether it’s constructing a new skyscraper or crafting bespoke decorative lighting, accurate measurements are the cornerstone of success. However, obtaining precise measurements, especially in complex environments like a busy museum reception with intricate ceiling details, can be quite challenging. This is where the power of 3D laser scanning comes into play.
Our esteemed client recently approached us with a challenging task -assist with the design of a new HV cable route in an area rich with various utility services. In this case study, we will delve into how Mincher Surveys leveraged utility mapping to meet our client’s requirements and ensure a seamless and safe cable route design.
Client Requirements
Our recent project with a valued client exemplifies the quintessential need for meticulous measurements. The client had encountered substantial difficulties in obtaining accurate dimensions of the ceiling details, specifically the positions and angles of the beams. These precise measurements were indispensable as they were embarking on the production of luxury decorative lighting that needed to seamlessly integrate with the beam positions.
The 3D Laser Scan Advantage
Our approach involved utilizing state-of-the-art 3D laser scanning technology. The process commenced with a comprehensive 3D laser scan of the entire room, including the intricate ceiling details in question. The precision and speed of this technique make it an ideal choice for complex projects, such as the one we undertook.
Creation of Accurate 2D Plans and Sections
The data collected from the 3D laser scan was then meticulously processed and translated into 2D plans and sections, ensuring the highest degree of accuracy. These plans and sections provided our client with a detailed representation of the ceiling details, including the exact positions and angles of the beams.
To further accommodate our client’s requirements, we meticulously planned our survey. The project took place in a bustling museum reception, where minimizing disruptions was of utmost importance. To achieve this, we scheduled the 3D laser scan to be performed before the museum opened for the day. This approach allowed us to carry out our work swiftly and with minimal impact on the museum’s operations.
