Revealing renovation structural challenges

The project managers aimed at nothing short of a complete overhaul—a full gut and remodel. To facilitate this ambitious endeavor and empower the architects with an intricate understanding of the existing space, Caldas Works undertook a comprehensive As-Built Survey. This survey encompassed a meticulous examination of the floor and ceiling, leaving no detail unchecked, including all Mechanical-Electrical-Plumbing (MEP) devices.

Demolition

During the initial demolition phase of the project, the contractor encountered a series of unexpected revelations. Columns and load-bearing walls, previously concealed, came into view. This revelation called for a meticulous recording of these structural elements, a task that demanded precision to ensure a successful renovation. Adding to the complexity, mechanical ducts and plumbing systems were exposed, presenting a clash with the proposed design envisioned by the architects and interior designers in New York.

With a project of this magnitude, addressing these challenges promptly and effectively was critical to maintaining project timelines and avoiding costly change orders. Laser scanning: the precision solution Recognizing the urgency and the need for accuracy, Caldas Works swiftly mobilized with precision laser scanning technology. In just several hours on-site, we meticulously captured the existing conditions, including the newly revealed structural elements and the exposed mechanical and plumbing systems. Efficiency that saves on project costs The data collected was promptly sent to the architects and designers in New York, where solutions and adjustments were seamlessly integrated into the renovation plans.

This collaborative approach, enabled by precise as-built surveys, not only saved valuable time but also averted weeks of potential back-and-forth deliberation. Most importantly, it mitigated the need for costly change orders, sparing the contractor and all involved parties from unexpected financial burdens.
