Dimensional control survey has been around for decades. It is generally known as the technique and science whereby three-dimensional spaces are accurately measured to determine the area between points, creating digitally mapped distances and angles. Below is an overview about dimensional control survey.
Dimensional Control Survey Applications
Dimensional control survey is suitable for application in industrial measurement, 3D capture, replacement pipe-work, clash checking, topographical surveys, mining survey, alignment surveys, structural steel surveys, drill rig alignments, structural monitoring, fabrication surveys, ship repair or building, laser scanning and 3D modelling.
Dimensional Control Survey Benefits
Dimensional control survey can benefit you in a lot of ways. You can definitely save time and money with reduced shut down times, work scope and labour requirements. Dimensional control survey is precise, rapid, and equipped with an efficient collection of fully digital three-dimensional data. Aside from that, you can create 3D modelling of structural modules prior to their mobilisation to site.
Dimensional control survey can mitigate problems and costly errors due to its advanced applications. The structures and modules fabricated in different locations can be surveyed to ensure that the design tolerances are adhered to. It will also ensure trouble free construction at the final construction site.
Dimensional control survey can also benefit unreachable or constricted places since they can be captured due to highly mobile measuring systems. Dimensional control survey can also access moving or vibrating structures. It is also used in safeguarding against compliance issues, ensuring items are within fabrication tolerance specifications.
Dimensional Control Survey Basics
Dimensional control can be defined as the process of acquiring accurate dimensional documentation that is spatially referenced to a known or established benchmark. Using the latest survey technology surveyors will be able to measure and produce 3D CAD models from single pipe spool replacements to full construction surveys.
The captured data can be transformed to a client’s preferred format, offering quick and easy data evaluation and problem checking. If the company have full drafting services, they will be able to provide full 3D models using AutoCAD or Micro-station, 2D drawings or Point Cloud data from a variety of scanners.
