Facades & Attic 3D Model | Building Complex

Not every project needs every storey in the model. For this historic building ensemble, the focus was on the building envelope, the attic storeys with loft and the entire plot. VDE captured exactly these areas with 3D laser scanning and modelled them in ArchiCAD 28.

Targeted rather than comprehensive

The complete façades with windows, shutters and dormers were modelled, as well as the attic storey and loft with the entire roof structure. Rafters, purlins, braces and chimneys form a dense framework there, which can only be captured without gaps from well-chosen scan positions. The stairwells were surveyed from the basement up to the loft, while the remaining storeys were deliberately left outside the scope.

Terrain in Premium standard

The entire plot was modelled in the Premium terrain standard: terrain, retaining walls, stairs, paths, fences, street lights, outbuildings and trees. A laid-out contour plan complements the model as a basis for landscape planning.
