CAD / CloudPoint
to BIM

Migration of 2D CAD documentation and point cloud data into full BIM information models -- maintaining precision and the required Level of Detail (LOD).

Migration to the BIM standard

Do you have documentation in CAD format or laser scanning data? We will transform them into fully-fledged BIM models, ready for further coordination, cost analysis, visualisation, and building lifecycle management.

Our conversion processes cover both CAD-to-BIM (from 2D drawings) and CloudPoint-to-BIM (from point clouds), ensuring full geometric and information consistency at the required LOD level.

Scope of services

CAD to BIM -- Architecture

Conversion of 2D AutoCAD drawings into a three-dimensional architectural BIM model in Revit.

CAD → BIM

CAD to BIM -- Structural

Structural BIM modelling based on 2D drawings -- foundations, columns, beams, and floor slabs.

Structural

CAD to BIM -- MEP Systems

Conversion of HVAC, plumbing, and electrical schematics into a coordinated BIM model.

MEP

CloudPoint to BIM

Conversion of laser scanning data (point cloud) into a precise BIM model.

Scan → BIM

Family / Component Modeling

Creation of dedicated Revit components and families for conversion purposes -- custom building elements.

Families

Documentation from BIM model

Generating complete 2D documentation from the newly created BIM model -- drawings, schedules, and specifications.

Documentation

Levels of Detail (LOD)

We select the LOD level to match project needs -- from concept to construction-ready model.

200

LOD 200 -- Conceptual

Approximate dimensions and shapes, general building geometry. Ideal for preliminary analyses.

300

LOD 300 -- Design

Accurate dimensions, materials, and element positions. Standard for building design documentation.

400

LOD 400 -- Construction

Full fabrication and assembly details. Model ready for prefabrication and construction.

500

LOD 500 -- As-built

As-built model verified on site. A digital twin for facility management.

Benefits of BIM conversion

From 2D to 3D

Flat CAD drawings gain the third dimension -- a full information model with parameters for every element.

Clash detection

Detecting cross-discipline clashes impossible in 2D -- eliminating errors before construction.

Precise cost estimates

Automatic quantity and material take-offs from the BIM model -- accurate cost estimation.

Faster design

The BIM model as a foundation for further project development -- changes propagate automatically.
