Point cloud data from a historic horse racing facility was converted into a LoD 300 structural BIM model for preservation-led renovation.
The challenge
The facility required modern refurbishment while preserving the historical character of the structure.
Raw point cloud data had to be translated into a LoD 300 model with accurate steel framework and architectural elements.
The approach
SBL aligned preservation requirements with BIM modelling rules before converting scan data into Revit components.
Structural and heritage checks verified that the digital model mirrored the existing conditions.
Align
Map preservation and structural modelling requirements.
Model
Convert point cloud data into LoD 300 Revit geometry.
Check
Review model fidelity against the historic structure.
The result
The client received a renovation-ready BIM model that reduced ambiguity for design and construction teams.
- A LoD 300 structural BIM model was created from point cloud data.
- Steel framework and architectural elements were captured in Revit.
- Preservation requirements informed the modelling workflow.
- The output supported high-stakes renovation planning.
