3D Modelling
See your building or facility in 3D – before the problems arise
Errors detected on the drawing board cost nothing. Errors detected on the building site cost everything. 3D modelling gives you a precise, digital picture of your shop, hotel, restaurant or café, offices or shopping centre – so you can make better decisions, avoid clashes and manage the project with full control.
What is 3D modelling?
3D modelling is the construction of digital, three-dimensional representations of buildings, industrial plants or production facilities. The models can be created on the basis of surveys of existing structures or a combination of both. The result is a detailed digital model that all parties involved in the project can work from – architects, engineers, contractors and the operations organisation.
In the construction of retail, hospitality, workspaces and shopping centres, 3D modelling is used for everything from new builds and conversion to maintenance, capacity planning and safety approval.
What value does 3D modelling give you?
A precise 3D model is not a fancy add-on – it is a concrete working tool that pays for itself already in the design phase:
Reduced project costs – fewer costly change orders and surprises on site
Better communication – all parties work from the same visual model, not interpretations of 2D drawings
Precise quantity take-off – directly from the model into tender documents and budgeting
Future-proofing – the model continues as the foundation for operations, maintenance and future conversions
3D modelling in construction
In construction, 3D modelling is at the core of the BIM workflow (Building Information Modelling). The model brings together architecture, structure and installations in one coordinated digital environment. This gives the client and advisors a real-time overview of the project and a solid foundation for handover – including as-built documentation and O&M material for the operations organisation.
3D modelling in retail, hospitality, workspace and shopping centres
Whether it is about optimising the customer journey in a shop, hotel or restaurant, the office space in a workplace, or the shopping experience in a shopping centre, 3D modelling is the key to intelligent property development and operations
An accurate 3D model of your premises provides the foundation for:
The process – from survey to finished model
We begin with a review of your project's needs and existing documentation. We then carry out a 3D scan of the property. You subsequently receive the completed deliverable in the file formats your organisation and advisors work with.
