Some of our architect clients have a 2D workflow. But, they still benefit from 3D efficiency. For this historic Florida home, we used one set of 3D/360° laser scans to draft seven as-built 2D Autocad files
4 Elevations
2 Floor Plans
1 Roof Plan
Here's a short video showing all of the above:

With all the excitement about 3D, sometimes we overlook the benefits of 2D. For instance, we received a call from a facility manager in Miami who needed to rearrange his 66,000-sqft manufacturing floor. Equipment, flow of materials, storage, shipping, management offices and maintenance all needed to be considered.
We used our 3D scanners to capture precision measurements of the floor space, walls, rooms, equipment, ceilings, lights and cranes. We then sliced the 3D model to reveal only the floor and drafted all of these items into Autocad DWG files so they could see what they had. We then did the same thing with the ceiling to show the structure, cranes, columns, lighting and other features.
Scanning took five hours and drafting took about four days. Can we help your facility with efficient space planning? Please visit http://c2a.studio/bim or call 1.561.866.4407.
Most recently a Fort Lauderdale, Florida nightclub with some funky wall art, this original 1928 residential building will be renovated as a restaurant.
Our architect client's CAD files are based on 3D laser scanned measurements impossible to get by hand (like the 37'/11.2m high apex of that pyramid skylight at the end).
With all 16,000 sqft measured at ±3mm accuracy, the interior designer and his team can develop concepts, approve, estimate, specify and permit without ever "double checking" measurements. All subs get the same set of master measurements which helps eliminate mistakes.
