3D Scanning for Engineering | Structural Drafting & Draftsperson Support

  3D Scanning for Engineering – Why the Right Draftsperson Matters After the Scan 3D scanning for engineering is changing how structural, mechanical and brownfield projects begin. Instead of relying entirely on old drawings, manual measurements, photographs and site sketches, engineering teams can capture the existing environment as a detailed three-dimensional point cloud. But capturing the site is only the beginning. The real engineering value often comes after the scan , when an experienced draftsperson or CAD designer converts that captured information into useful models, layouts and engineering drawings. For companies undertaking plant upgrades, structural modifications, shutdown work or equipment installations, there are therefore two important questions: Do we have accurate existing-condition information? And: Do we have enough drafting resources to turn that information into engineering deliverables? Hamilton By Design provides 3D scanning for engineering as well as engin...

Structural Drafting Central Coast | 3D Laser Scanning Support

Image
 Structural Drafting Central Coast Supported by Engineering-Grade 3D Laser Scanning Structural drafting projects often begin with existing drawings, site measurements and assumptions about what has been constructed. Unfortunately, existing drawings do not always represent current site conditions. Structures may have been modified, equipment may have been relocated, services may have been installed and previous changes may not have been properly documented. For industrial, commercial and infrastructure projects on the Central Coast, these inconsistencies can create significant problems during design, fabrication and installation. Hamilton By Design combines structural drafting with engineering-grade 3D laser scanning across Australia to provide project teams with accurate information about existing structures and surrounding site conditions. This allows structural drawings to be developed using measured site data rather than relying entirely on old drawings or limited manual measur...
