WebEd: Laser Scanning for Building Owners & Their Teams: Contracting & Estimating Considerations

All WebEd times are in EST

Member Price: FREE
Non Member Price: FREE

Description:

This presentation will review case studies of notable large laser scan projects for buildings and site as-built conditions. The presentation will be targeted towards building owners and their design and construction teams, providing a discussion of what owners and their teams need to know when considering utilizing laser scanning and related forms of Reality Capture for their building assets. The presentation will highlight the new BIMForum 2018 Level of Development (LOD) Specification. It will also include the United States Institute for Building Documentation (USIBD) Level of Accuracy Specification. Key components of this presentation will address what owners need to consider prior to scanning, what should be included in the request for proposals, how to determine what reasonable expectations of laser scanning are, and the current state-of-the-art technology in 2018. Finally, the presentation will include industry-reference documents and other resources that owners and their design and construction teams can utilize.

Learning Objectives

  1. What is Lidar and Laser Scanning?
  2. Define Level Of Development (LOD) for design and how it differs from the USIBD LOA.
  3. Understand the AIA/AGC BIMForum LOD Specification 2018 and the USIBD LOA and how you can address LOD and LOA in BIM Execution Plans.
  4. Understand why laser scanning discussions are crucial early on in projects with existing assets.
