Setting the scene


A Quebec-based company specializing in steel building construction partnered with pointSpace for a steel frame installation project. The goal was to obtain an accurate plan of rooftop obstructions to reduce the risk of errors and streamline project planning.

Proposed solutions

  • Complete 3D scan of the roof
  • Delivery of a color E57 file  for integration into SDS2  software

Gains

Thanks to the data provided by pointSpace, the company was able to:


  • Plan the steel frame installation with precision
  • Reduce the risk of on-site interferences
  • Improve efficiency in technical coordination with partners
  • Ensure seamless integration of the new structure with the existing roof
  • Clearly visualize real site conditions to better anticipate constraints
  • Easily integrate the plans into their existing workflow


Why pointSpace ?

Our mission is simple: to bring the building directly to our customers' computers. With accurate data and intuitive access, we enable our partners like Reitmans to gain time, efficiency and control over their projects.
