Challenge
Triangle Electric required accurate, up-to-date documentation of its office and prefabrication facility to support future renovations, equipment planning, and space reconfiguration.
The facility had no existing architectural drawings or verified as-built records, making future remodels dependent on manual field verification and increasing the risk of errors, delays, and rework.
Without reliable floor plans, elevations, or building layouts, long-term planning and coordination with designers and contractors was inefficient and uncertain.
To address these challenges, Triangle engaged NTG to perform reality capture, develop an LOD 200 Revit model, and produce a scalable architectural documentation package.
Solution
NTG mobilized a field team to perform comprehensive 3D scanning of Triangle’s office and prefabrication shop, capturing accurate existing conditions in a single day.
The scan data was processed and converted into a coordinated LOD 200 Revit model, serving as the foundation for architectural documentation.
Using this model, NTG developed a complete interior and exterior architectural drawing package, providing Triangle with professional, scalable documentation for future use.
NTG’s scope included:
- On-site reality capture and 3D scanning
- Point cloud processing and verification
- Development of LOD 200 Revit model
- Creation of architectural floor plans and layouts
- Production of exterior elevations
- Interior room and space documentation
- Dimensional verification and quality control
- Delivery of scalable drawing packages
These actions established Triangle’s first complete digital and architectural record of the facility.
Process
NTG applied a structured, repeatable workflow based on internal best practices and proven reality capture standards.
Initial Evaluation & Planning
- Reviewed facility layout and access conditions
- Established scanning coverage requirements
- Defined modeling and documentation scope
- Coordinated site access and logistics
Findings were used to develop a streamlined field and modeling plan.
Reality Capture & Data Processing
NTG completed full-facility scanning in one day, capturing architectural, structural, and spatial conditions.
Point cloud data was processed, aligned, and verified for accuracy prior to modeling.
Revit Modeling (LOD 200)
NTG developed a coordinated LOD 200 Revit model representing major architectural and structural elements, spatial relationships, and building geometry.
The model was optimized for future design, renovation, and coordination use.
Architectural Documentation
Using the Revit model, NTG produced scalable interior and exterior architectural drawings, including floor plans, elevations, and space layouts.
Quality Control
Internal review procedures verified dimensional accuracy, alignment, and documentation consistency prior to final delivery.
Results
Complete Facility Documentation
NTG delivered the first comprehensive digital and architectural record of Triangle’s facility.
Improved Planning Capability
Accurate drawings and models enabled efficient planning for future remodels and expansions.
Reduced Field Verification
Reliable as-built documentation minimized the need for repeated site visits and manual measurements.
Design Readiness
Scalable drawing packages allowed architects and engineers to begin future work immediately.
Centralized Building Data
All facility information was consolidated into a single, coordinated BIM and drawing platform.
Project Impact
- Created LOD 200 BIM foundation
- Produced professional architectural drawing set
- Reduced future project risk
- Improved coordination with design partners
- Lowered long-term documentation costs
- Established reusable facility asset
Conclusion
Through rapid reality capture, disciplined modeling, and professional documentation, NTG transformed Triangle Electric’s undocumented facility into a fully documented, design-ready asset.
By delivering an accurate LOD 200 Revit model and scalable architectural drawing package, NTG provided Triangle with the tools needed to support future growth, renovations, and operational planning.
This case study reflects NTG’s commitment to precision, responsiveness, and long-term value. When clients need reliable documentation and BIM leadership, NTG delivers solutions that support lasting success.
