Information about our Models
1
Sheets
All our projects will have sheets set up within the Revit model using our own borders, as a minimum they will consist of views of floor plans, the overall external elevations and overall sections through the building if appropriate.
Project Parameters
In all our models, we set up project parameters for Survey notes to allow us to communicate model intent with the end user. For example, if we have assumed or approximated the position of an element, it will be noted here and can easily be found through scheduling elements as required. We also include parameters for lateral and vertical deviation for elements that deviate slightly more than the required tolerance. This allows for a much “cleaner” model by doing so. These can and should initially be scheduled to better understand our model. If you require any specific project parameters please let us know in the comments section below.
Family Parameters
Where efficient, bespoke families will be built to best represent the existing conditions. The physical parameters of the families will allow for easy resizing of the element including instance parameters for overall geometry size where regular size deviation occurs such as on door/window height/widths . Due to the method that we use to create the families, they can easily be reused for proposals if like for like element styles are required. When time permits we try to use algebraic formulas to control the parameters so that the elements do not break when flexed. Please indicate in the comments below if you require any specific parametric controls for families within each building element.
Model in Place
We believe that model in place should be a last resort on how to model building elements. Therefore, we only have two situations where we deem it acceptable: arched ceilings and irregular voids in walls. If you want these to be modeled in a certain way, please comment below. Reducing the amount of “model in place elements, keeps file sizes down, increases model intelligence and allows for much more efficient editing and scheduling workflows.

Information about our Scanning
1
Scan Density
Depending on the scanner used and the complexity of the site we can achieve various point densities, Our typical scanner can capture 40,960 pixels both vertically and horizontally over 360 degrees, over a 20m distance this can provide approximately 1 point every 3mm across the visible range. If a more dense point spacing is required please indicate this before survey commences as this may increase the cost of collecting the data. As a minimum standard, we set our scanners to achieve a minimum of 1 point every 5mm internally and 1 point every 10mm externally.
