As-Built Plans - Le FouFou
Setting the scene
The Royalmount is the largest private development in Quebec. Spearheaded by Carbonleo, this ambitious project mobilizes over 500 engineers, architects and construction professionals, working together to bring to life an exceptional 1,500,000 sq. ft. urban park in the heart of Mont-Royal.
This multi-use complex, scheduled to open in spring 2024, was in its crucial construction phase. The pointSpace team played a key role in supporting JCB's teams at this decisive stage. Our team, deployed at the food fair site, focused on the detailed survey of the building, including all architectural, structural and MEP aspects. The aim was to create a precise reference of the premises as built, to facilitate the subsequent interior design phase. Given the discrepancies often observed between initial concept and reality, it is essential to model current site conditions before embarking on subsequent phases.
In a large-scale construction or interior fit-out project, differences between the original plans and the actual site conditions can lead to delays, costly adjustments and coordination challenges between teams. As-built plans and as-built drawings become essential references to move forward with greater accuracy.
Through 3D scanning, Revit modeling and existing-condition documentation, pointSpace provides a reliable technical foundation for engineers, architects, subcontractors and project managers. The collected data helps teams better understand the actual site conditions, coordinate architectural, structural and MEP interventions, and reduce the risk of errors during the fit-out phase.
This approach supports construction documentation, Scan to BIM, as-built documentation and
construction progress documentation needs, which are especially strategic for large-scale commercial, real estate and construction projects across Canada.
Proposed solutions
- Comprehensive digitization of the food fair, true to actual construction conditions.
- Creation of a detailed Revit model, reflecting existing conditions in their architectural, structural and MEP aspects.
- Regular updates of the model, in phase with the evolution of the construction site.
Gains
The creation of precise plans enabled the engineers and their subcontractors to approach the next stages of the project fully informed about current site conditions.
The pointSpace team was committed to providing ongoing support to developers, offering repeated site visits to deliver a constantly evolving model. This close collaboration with the engineers was aimed at optimizing efficiency and guaranteeing rigorous quality control, both of which are essential in this sector.
In addition, pointSpace ensured rapid and efficient mobilization to simplify the construction process and speed up the work of the various parties involved.
" A collaboration that made all the difference in meeting the deadlines for this major project! "
