As-Built 2D CAD Documentation
As-Built 2D CAD Documentation for Engineering & Inspection
Using 3D laser scanning, we capture highly accurate point cloud data that serves as the basis for producing as-built 2D CAD documentation. Compared with conventional measurement and survey methods, 3D laser scanning provides a much higher level of accuracy, detail, and coverage while reducing the risk of missing critical dimensions or relying on incomplete manual measurements. This makes as-built 2D CAD documentation a reliable deliverable for projects that require precise representation of existing conditions.
Our as-built 2D CAD documentation is tailored to each client’s specific requirements in terms of format, scope, and Level of Development (LOD). Depending on the project, we can produce as-built engineering drawings for reverse engineering, as-built architectural drawings for BIM-related workflows, floor plans, sections, elevations, topographic drawings, and as-built piping isometric drawings for industrial plants. Because these deliverables are developed from highly accurate 3D laser scan data, the final drawings reflect actual field conditions rather than outdated design information or limited manual measurements.
As-built 2D CAD documentation is also highly valuable for inspection and quality control applications. We produce documentation to support laser tracker alignment & inspection, storage tank inspection & calibration, volume surveys, construction verification, deformation & wear analysis, topographic mapping & georeferencing, GPR (underground mapping), propeller inspection, and LIBS, XRF, & ultrasonic thickness analysis. In these applications, clear and accurate drawings help translate complex 3D laser scan and dimensional measurement data into practical documentation that can be reviewed, referenced, and used efficiently by project teams.
By combining high-accuracy 3D laser scanning with refined processing and drafting workflows, we deliver as-built 2D CAD documentation that is accurate, consistent, and tailored to the technical requirements of each project. The result is high-quality documentation that supports decision-making, improves coordination, reduces rework, and provides a dependable basis for further design, analysis, inspection, and maintenance activities.
