3D Laser Scanning

Turner Construction engaged SEI to perform a 3D laser scan of the new Cobb County Superior Court building. The purpose of the scan in this instance was to evaluate the installation of the masonry ledges around the exterior of the building and to evaluate a perceived “racking” of the clock tower portion of the structure. As-built drawings were produced with measurements and reference to vertical and horizontal on each individual exposure of the clock tower and remainder of the structure.

Phase I involved several scans around the structure at angles and elevations that best reflect the entire structure in the field of view. A 3-dimensional ‘point cloud’ or spatial data set is utilized to prepeare the as-built documentation. The second phase involves the survey documentation. SEI prepared several plans and elevation drawings of the tower referencing true verticle alignment to the structure.
