Construction
Catch problems on screen — before they become problems on site.
Construction projects live and die on accurate information. When what’s built doesn’t match what was designed — or when the existing conditions feeding into a project are wrong from the start — the consequences show up as costly rework, delays, and disputes. Persase provides 3D scanning services that give construction teams an accurate, objective record of site conditions, construction progress, and as-built results — at every stage of a project, from pre-construction through handover.
Persase in action — laser scanning a construction site for as-built verification and progress documentation
How Persase Serves Construction
| Service | How construction uses it |
|---|---|
| Building & Site Laser Scanning | Accurate point cloud capture of sites, structures, and buildings at any stage — pre-construction existing conditions, mid-construction progress, and post-construction as-built documentation |
| As-Built BIM Models | Scan data converted into a fully structured BIM model confirming that construction matches design intent — identifying deviations before handover and providing accurate documentation for the building owner |
| Digital Twins | Progress digital twins that document the evolving as-built condition of a project at key milestones — providing a permanent, accurate record of the building as constructed at each stage |
| Roof Moisture Inspection | Post-installation thermal imaging to verify new roofing systems are dry and performing correctly before warranty periods begin — catching installation defects before they become warranty claims |
| 3D Virtual Tours | Matterport walkthroughs of completed spaces for handover documentation, remote client reviews, and marketing of completed projects to future tenants or buyers |

Why 3D Scanning for Construction
Construction disputes most often come down to one question — what was actually built, and when? 3D scanning answers that question with objective, timestamped data that no party can dispute. Whether it’s verifying that a concrete pour matches structural drawings, confirming that mechanical runs are in the correct position before walls are closed, or documenting site conditions before a subcontractor begins work, scan data provides an accurate, defensible record that protects everyone involved.
For pre-construction, laser scanning of existing buildings and sites eliminates the inaccurate base conditions that cause coordination problems downstream — giving the design team a reliable model to work from and the construction team an accurate picture of what they’re building into. For construction progress, regular scanning at key milestones documents the evolving as-built condition, catches deviations from design before they become expensive to fix, and provides a permanent record of work completed at each stage. For handover, a complete as-built BIM model and Matterport virtual tour give the building owner accurate documentation of what was delivered — reducing disputes and supporting long-term facility management from day one.
