Rebar 3D Scanning for Contractor As-Builts

 

When 3D scanning is performed during construction, very detailed and timely project data is captured. The speed of data capture means that construction progress is not impacted. For example, as-built data documents the location of conduits, cables, and rebar to inform future construction or renovation on-site. For excavation, shotcreting, grading or rock stockpiles, 3D laser scanning allows detailed and very accurate quantity calculations.

For a new building at Portland Community College’s Willow Creek Center, scanning captured the location of rebar, post-tension cables and utility conduit prior to the concrete pour. When power conduit winds through rebar, conduit can be misplaced (i.e. not per design). The unknown locations can cause a serious safety hazard when accidentally drilled through on a post pour slab penetration. Scan data can be revisited during future renovation projects to show utility locations under the slab which can result in reduced costs.
