Summary

A wastewater treatment facility required an accurate representation of its aeration building ahead of a system upgrade. Prashant led the multidisciplinary scan-to-BIM effort, establishing a validated architectural, structural and MEP baseline from point cloud data.

Type
Scan-to-BIM
Location
Staten Island, NY

Core challenge

  • Upgrade design decisions hinged on reliable existing-conditions data

  • Architectural, structural and MEP information had to be reconciled against the scan and across disciplines

  • Latent conflicts between existing elements posed a risk to downstream design if left unidentified

Our solution

  1. 01

    Multidisciplinary delivery leadership

    Directed the modeling effort as Project Lead, aligning scope, standards and quality across three disciplines.

  2. 02

    Point-cloud-driven modeling

    Oversaw the development of architectural, structural and MEP models directly from point cloud data.

  3. 03

    Accuracy validation

    Verified modeled existing elements against captured site conditions.

  4. 04

    Early conflict identification

    Ran cross-discipline clash detection ahead of design decisions.

Business outcome

3 disciplines

consolidated into one validated existing-conditions baseline

2 quality gates

applied before design: accuracy validation and clash detection

4 workstreams

led end to end: team leadership, modeling, accuracy validation and clash detection
