Another valuable digital asset in the Hensel Phelps’ toolbox is the ability to laser scan. The development of reality capture through laser scanning has been a tremendous boom in providing the ability to quality control the work put in place in new facilities. Three-dimensional laser scanning, which creates up to 1 million points of data per second, can be used to create virtual building models which can be extremely useful during the design phase as an ongoing feedback process between the design and construction teams. The boost in information helps designers and builders integrate their efforts and streamline the transition from vision to actual construction. Precise data means the project team can count on proper fabrication and installation. At the design stage, quality is increased, schedules are kept intact and cost are lowered by more accurate information. In the field, laser scanning is critical for quality assurance as the work proceeds from one stage to another. This type of data also proves cost effective upon construction completion, accurately documenting the final as-builts. Information can be exchanged to explore “what-if” scenarios to support design, construction and management of a building in many others ways, before during and after completion, including: • Data capture in congested areas without interrupting operations. • Quality control to compare work-in-place to the design model at every phase throughout construction, assuring it is installed per design specifications, at the right location and within tolerance. • Prefabricated systems, which can be designed and built off-site with complete assurance that they will be installed correctly. • Equipment installation verification with scans to validate consistency with the design model. • Hazardous location work where scans can capture data from a safe distance. • Identification of pervasive anomalies that would otherwise have to be visually inspected and verified one by one. • Digital records of content inside walls and foundations for operations and maintenance purposes, as well as preparation for any future work. Hensel Phelps is committed to building lasting partnerships with our clients and as a result, the City of Sunny Isles Beach will realize the benefits of inspired performance.
