Scan to BIM Services

We offer a comprehensive range of BIM services to the Architectural, Structural, MEP/HVAC & Façade domains for effective pre-construction planning

Scan to BIM Services

Modern façade systems demand a high level of precision, coordination, and constructability that traditional 2D workflows are no longer equipped to handle. Complex geometries, tight tolerances, interface conditions, and performance requirements often lead to coordination gaps, fabrication discrepancies, and installation delays when not addressed early in the design process. Facade BIM and VDC services overcome these challenges by delivering intelligent, data-rich 3D models that enable accurate design validation, seamless coordination, and reliable construction outcomes.

Advenser provides comprehensive Facade BIM / VDC services for a wide range of building envelope systems, including curtain walls, unitized and stick façades, aluminum glazing systems, metal panels, cladding assemblies, skylights, canopies, and complex custom façade geometries. Using industry-standard tools such as Revit, Inventor, Advance Steel, Navisworks, and BIM 360, the façade BIM team supports architects, façade consultants, contractors, fabricators, and installers with coordinated models and fabrication-ready deliverables across Australia.

Our Scan to BIM Service Capabilities

3D Laser Scanning & Data Capture

3D Laser Scanning & Data Capture

We capture precise site conditions using advanced 3D laser scanners and LiDAR tools. The resulting point cloud data delivers millimeter-level accuracy, allowing teams to document structures, MEP systems, and architectural details with confidence.

Scan to BIM

Scan to BIM

We convert point cloud data into accurate architectural, structural, MEP, and façade BIM models. These models reflect true as-built conditions and support renovation planning, coordination, clash detection, and facility management workflows.

Scan to CAD

Scan to CAD

We generate clean, precise 2D CAD drawings—plans, sections, and elevations, from point cloud data. This service is ideal for renovation, compliance submissions, and projects requiring accurate as-built documentation in DWG format.

Scan to Mesh

Scan to Mesh

We create detailed 3D mesh models representing complex geometries and curved surfaces. These meshes are ideal for heritage preservation, digital twins, industrial simulations, and accurate visualization of existing environments.

Scan to Revit Family Creation

Scan to Revit Family Creation

We develop custom Revit families from scanned objects or existing equipment. These parametric families capture accurate geometry and attributes, enabling efficient modeling and asset management in BIM environments.

As-Built Documentation

As-Built Documentation

We produce architectural, structural, and MEP as-built drawings and BIM models based on scan data and field verification. Our as-built documentation accurately reflects the final built state for handover, compliance, and future facility operations.

Frequently Asked Questions

What information do you need to start a Scan to BIM project?

We typically require point cloud files (.RCP, .RCS, .E57, .PTS, .LAS), any existing drawings, BIM standards, and the required LOD. If needed, we can also assist your scanning team with scanning specifications.

Can you model from scans captured by another contractor?
Yes. We work with all industry-standard point cloud formats regardless of the scanning vendor. As long as the data is clear and complete, we can model from it.
What level of detail (LOD) do you provide for Scan to BIM?
We deliver models ranging from LOD 200 to LOD 500, depending on project requirements—whether it’s for design, coordination, fabrication, or facility management.
How accurate are your Scan to BIM models?
Our models generally match site conditions with accuracy within ±5 mm, depending on the scan quality and environmental conditions during scanning.
Do you offer both BIM and CAD deliverables?
Yes. We can deliver Revit models (RVT), CAD drawings (DWG), IFC files, NWC models, and PDF documentation based on your requirements.
Can you model only selected systems like MEP or structural elements?
Absolutely. You can choose full-building modelling or limit the scope to architectural, structural, MEP, façade, or equipment-specific areas.
How long does a Scan to BIM project take?
Timelines vary based on project size, complexity, and required LOD. With scalable teams, we can accommodate fast-turnaround projects when necessary.
Do you provide Scan to BIM for renovation or recladding projects?
Yes. Scan to BIM is ideal for recladding, refits, adaptive reuse, refurbishment, and retrofit projects, providing a reliable digital benchmark for design.
Do you provide deviation reports comparing the model and point cloud?
Yes. We offer deviation and tolerance analysis reports that highlight differences between the constructed conditions and the design model.
Can you handle complex buildings like hospitals, airports, and industrial plants?
Yes. We specialize in modeling large, complex facilities with dense MEP systems, irregular geometry, and extensive structural details.
Do you support heritage or curved façade Scan to BIM projects?
Yes. We accurately model heritage elements, curved surfaces, ornaments, moldings, and non-typical geometry using mesh and hybrid modeling techniques.
Do you support façade panel scheduling and material take-offs?
Yes. We generate detailed panel schedules, glass take-offs, extrusion take-offs, hardware quantities, accessory lists, and BOQs directly from the BIM model to support procurement and production planning.
Can you integrate Scan to BIM models into our BIM coordination workflow?
Yes. Our models follow your coordinate system, templates, and BIM Execution Plan, ensuring smooth integration into Navisworks or BIM360 coordination environments.
Are your Scan to BIM models suitable for digital twins or FM systems?
Yes. We develop FM-ready models that support asset tagging, lifecycle management, and digital twin platforms for long-term operations.
What software do you use to create Scan to BIM models?
We use Revit, Autodesk Recap, Navisworks, Cyclone, Faro Scene, CloudCompare, and other specialized tools depending on project needs.
