Our Solution

Chris Mounts quickly scanned the site with a FARO Laser Scanner and took three scans in under 15 minutes. The scans revealed a simpler solution to the problem and the point cloud images showed that the plates on the beams didn't need to be ground off. Instead, the team recommended shifting the beam placements, avoiding the need for a millwright and saving both time and expenses.

Thanks to the scans, PMI was able to adjust the construction plans and avoid removing a staircase. A previously problematic L-bracket and a damaged piece of concrete could have required labor-intensive work, but the point clouds showed that by adjusting the floor placement by 4 inches, they could bypass that extra construction.
