Scan to BIM Services

We provide Scan to BIM services that convert point cloud data from existing buildings into accurate, information-rich BIM models.

We support architects, engineers, contractors and owners across Texas and the USA with as-built BIM models that help in renovation, retrofit, extension and facility planning.

Scope of Our

Scan to BIM Services

Architectural Scan to BIM

We develop architectural BIM models from point cloud scans, capturing walls, doors, windows, openings, floors, ceilings, roofs and basic finishes according to the scope.

Structural Scan to BIM

We create structural BIM models for columns, beams, slabs, foundations, cores and structural walls from scan data, aligned with architectural references.

MEP Scan to BIM

We model major MEP elements visible in the point cloud such as ducts, pipes, cable trays, main equipment and risers for coordination and planning.

Heritage and Complex Geometry Modeling

For heritage buildings and complex geometry, we build accurate BIM representations of arches, vaulted ceilings, curved façades and non-standard shapes within practical modeling limits.

Internal quality checks

2D As-Built Drawings from BIM

From the Scan to BIM model, we generate as-built plans, elevations, sections and basic details needed for renovation and compliance submissions.

Deliverables

Our Scan to BIM deliverables are structured to support design, coordination and facility management.
  • BIM models created from point cloud data for architecture, structure and key MEP
  • Model views for plans, elevations, sections and 3D perspectives
  • 2D as-built drawings exported from the BIM model where required
  • Export formats such as RVT, DWG, IFC, NWC based on scope
  • Optional Excel summaries for basic area and element counts

All deliverables follow your project standards, naming rules and templates where they are provided.

What Our Scan to BIM Models Represent

An as-built digital representation of the existing building conditions

The actual position and size of key architectural, structural and visible MEP elements

A reliable base for renovation, retrofit, extension and coordination

A model that can support documentation, clash checks and future updates

A shared reference that reduces site re-measurement and guesswork

Scan to BIM Workflow

At Eagle BIM, we follow a well-defined process to deliver accurate, coordinated, and fabrication-ready shop drawings. Our workflow makes sure that every drawing we produce aligns with the project’s design intent, coordination standards, and construction requirements.
Scan to Bim

Input review and scope definition

We review point cloud data, existing drawings, photos and scope notes, and confirm which areas and elements need to be modeled.

Point cloud preparation

We organize the point cloud data, link it into the BIM environment and set up levels, grids and coordinates as per project requirements.

Architectural and structural modeling

We model key architectural and structural elements from the point cloud, matching geometry as closely as practical to existing conditions.

MEP and special element modeling

Where in scope, we model visible MEP elements and any special or complex geometry needed for the project.

Internal quality checks

We cross-check model geometry against the point cloud, review critical dimensions and verify alignment between disciplines.

Client review and final delivery

We share models and views for review, apply comments and deliver final RVT, DWG, IFC, NWC and drawing outputs as agreed.

FAQs for Scan to BIM Services

We typically work with point cloud files, existing drawings (if available), photos and scope notes that clarify which areas and elements to model.

We can work with common point cloud formats supported by BIM tools, and we can discuss specific formats at the start of the project.

No. We model the elements defined in the scope — usually key architectural, structural and major MEP elements — at a practical level of detail.

Yes. We can generate as-built plans, elevations and sections from the BIM model where required.

Accuracy depends on the quality of the scan and the agreed tolerance. We aim to stay within sensible tolerances for design and coordination work.

We deliver RVT models, and can also provide DWG, IFC, NWC and PDF drawings depending on your requirements.
