When a building has been renovated multiple times over several decades, its existing drawings often tell only part of the story. Especially in industrial facilities, where ductwork, piping, and electrical systems are layered in complex ways, it can be difficult—and risky—to rely on manual measurements or outdated plans when preparing for new construction.
That’s where Oliver Construction’s 3D laser scanning technology makes a difference.
To eliminate guesswork and reduce risk, our team uses advanced 3D laser scanners that capture millions of data points within seconds. The result is a highly accurate point cloud—essentially a digital replica of the space—that records every visible element in full 360°, from overhead conduits to floor-level obstacles. With precision down to 0.1 millimeters, this scan gives our team a complete and exact understanding of the existing environment.
Why It Matters:
- Eliminates Surprises
Our scans help identify potential conflicts—like unexpected obstructions or misaligned systems—before construction begins. - Enhances Safety
No more climbing ladders or navigating tight spaces to take measurements. Scanning is done safely from the ground. - Saves Time and Costs
Because the point cloud integrates directly into our design software, modifications can be made virtually—saving our clients time, materials, and money during the build phase. - Improves Coordination
All stakeholders—from designers to engineers to subcontractors—can work from the same accurate digital model, streamlining communication and reducing rework.
At Oliver Construction, we combine decades of experience with cutting-edge technology to deliver smarter solutions for complex projects. Our investment in 3D laser scanning is just one more way we bring clarity to construction—so you can build with confidence.
