3. 3D laser scanning is a process that uses lasers
to capture millions of detailed points of a building,
structure or site. These lasers, which pulse hundreds
of thousands of times per second, give incredibly
accurate measurements between points, creating
a 3D collection of XYZ coordinates known as a
‘point cloud’. Specialist software then converts
this data into comprehensive 3D models.
BENEFITS WHEN USING
3D LASER SCANNING
- Enables generation of 3D models from
point cloud data
- Provides accurate as-built information
- Enables safer surveying practices in
hazardous environments, e.g.
Rail infrastructure & Motorways
- Reduces surveying field time
- Reduces surveying costs in comparison
to traditional methods
- Improves surveying processes and
work flows
- Provides high resolution images and data

4. 3D scanning can assist with evidence preservation and forensic
evaluation. Once data is captured, it can be utilised to construct
3D models which can be subsequently used during mediation,
arbitration and litigation.
Tantek solutions offer a full ‘cradle to grave’ 3D laser scan to
BIM service. Once 3D scanning is complete, a point cloud is
generated, and is subsequently transposed to a relevant
software package for model generation. The model is then
used by a multi-discipline design team as a basis for a newly
co-ordinated building information model (BIM).
On site progress can be accurately recorded at regular intervals
using 3D laser scanning. A point cloud and 360-degree high
resolution photoset is produced in order to monitor the progress
of projects.
3D laser scanning can be used to model and inspect a number
of physical objects and surfaces, e.g. structural, building and
mechanical surface elements.
3D surface models can be created to confirm that such elements
have been produced/constructed and maintained as per the
design specification'.
3D scanning can be used in conjunction with digital film and
photography to build a complete digital representation model
of historic buildings and sites.

ARCHITECTURAL ARCHIVES
PROGRESS REPORTING
In order to make sure that infrastructure and building projects
proceed according to schedule, organisations need to take
advantage of 3D laser scanning technologies which can help
survey large areas in a short period of time.
Volume calculations can be produced from scan data in order to
determine cut and fill figures between a scanned surface and a
user-defined plane. Extraction volumes can also be determined
between two scanned surfaces to assess the progress of
excavation works on a regular basis.

5. WHAT IS 4D BIM?
The addition of a ‘fourth dimension’, time,
to a 3D model is known as 4D BIM. 4D BIM
employs a range of terminology, such as:
4D Planning and Scheduling,
4D Modelling, or 4D Simulation.
On this basis, 4D BIM entails linking the
construction programme of works to a 3D model,
thus improving traditional construction planning
techniques and the time predictability problem.
Indeed, 4D BIM helps clients easily understand
complex projects, which is generally difficult to
accomplish using 2D drawings and bar-charts.

4D BIM
BENEFITS WHEN USING 4D BIM
• Permits simulation and visualisation
of the complete project
• Creates animated sequences, including
both permanent and temporary works
• Enables the planner to produce more
accurate schedules
• Allows more effective communication
of the plan to stakeholders
• Improves site logistic planning through
resource movement simulation
• Improves H&S through easy identification
of hazardous activities
• Aids progress monitoring by simulating
‘actual vs planned’
• Helps to reduce project risks through
interrogative planning

6. 4D BIM technologies enable project progress
to be viewed in 3D, whilst also comparing
planned versus actual progress.
Comparison simulations allow differences to
be highlighted between the live project and
the baseline using early and late/critical
colours.
This demonstrates graphically how the project
is progressing in comparison with the plans in
the baseline.
4D PROGRESS
MONITORING
Using the latest 4D BIM software platforms,
construction project programmes and
respective 4D models can be produced for
any project type.
4D models are created by linking the tasks in
the project plan with the 3D model components.
This enables clients to clearly see the
programme tasks and timelines in a virtual
environment.
Videos and ‘fly-pasts’ can even be created
for the timeline simulation.
Tantek’s advanced 4D BIM software allows
simulation of the entire project, and creates
animated sequences of various works
packages prior to the start of the construction
phase.
Moreover, ‘what if’ scenarios regarding
task sequencing and scheduling options,
permanent and temporary works, and site
logistics, can all be visually simulated
and assessed.

7. WHAT IS MIXED REALITY(MR)?
Mixed reality encompasses a spectrum of visual
displays spanning from the real environment to
the virtual environment. Within this spectrum is
augmented reality (AR) and augmented virtuality
(AV). AR lies closer to the real environment, and
allows digital models and information to be
overlaid and mixed into users’ perception of the
real world.
In contrast, AV is closer to the virtual environment,
and entails systems that are mostly digitally
generated, but have some real world imagery
overlaid.
AR uses wearable head mounted mobile devices,
such as HoloLens, and enables users to view and
edit 3D visualisations and digital information
overlaid onto the real world environment.
HoloLens technology allows all physical and digital
information to be displayed through the goggles.
On this basis, Tantek address shortcomings of
current BIM practices which tend to separate
virtual information from physical real world
information.

with the real world environment
• Allows users to view composite visualisations
of BIM on site
• Enables greater testing and refining
of design options
• Allows management to monitor real-time
progress on site or remotely
• Improves communication between all
stakeholders
• Works in tandem with 3D laser scanning
• Improves efficiencies in the design, delivery,
maintenance and demolition of projects

8. Immersive technologies, such as the HoloLens,
can be utilised to assist asset/plant operations
on site. For instance, to facilitate plant
maintenance, augmented reality applications can
be used to direct personnel on how to conduct
various maintenance works; thus ensuring a
faster, more efficient and safer workflow.
ASSET/PLANT
MANAGEMENT
Real-time progress monitoring - Site progress
can be monitored visually on a daily/weekly
basis using immersive technologies. This
enables management to report, check, and
monitor progress in a quicker, more efficient
way; since users can visualise respective data
on the construction site.
Automated progress monitoring - In this scenario,
local teams can take high-resolution photos of
as-built site conditions, send those photos back
to a remote location, and overlay the data onto
the project's 3D model. Working in mixed reality,
management can review actual site progress
remotely.
A holographic project view allows clients to
visualise the project and to immerse themselves
within. Using the HoloLens headset, users can
hear, see and interact with holograms in their
real world environment. 3D models can be
assembled or re-assembled, viewed from
different angles, and can be altered in
many ways.
HOLOGRAPHIC
IMMERSION
By utilising HoloLens technology, users can test
and refine numerous design options by viewing
composite 3D visualisations within the
actual ‘real world’ environment.
This then enables management to select the
most optimum design for proposed projects.

9. Digital virtual reality is a technology that
allows clients to enter a computer generated
virtual environment through the use of a
VR headset. This enables the client to have
360⁰ views, and the ability to move around in
the virtual environment; which offers a more
realistic and accurate visual experience.
BENEFITS WHEN USING VR
The use of VR can bring many benefits to a
business when integrated into their day to
day running.
For many years project teams could only use
assumptions and judgements to determine
whether a certain method or design was viable
on a project. By using VR technology, designs
can be challenged and improved, even before the
project starts.
Further benefits include:
- Improves efficiency & production
- Minimises design changes
- Improves client confidence
- Improves communication between
all stakeholders
- Reduces down time due to quicker
decision making
- Improves quality control
WHAT IS VIRTUAL
REALITY (VR)?

Tantek Digital Solutions Limited | Ireland & UK | Tel: 086 3889563 / Tel: 087 191 6291 | Email: info@tanteksolutions.ie
DIGITAL VIRTUAL
REALITY (VR)
Utilising the most innovative Virtual Reality (VR) technologies,
Tantek Solutions provide many VR solutions for industry
10. VR can be incorporated into an organisations
quality assurance (QA) and quality control
(QC) processes, thus ensuring that a high
level of design quality is being maintained
throughout the projects lifecycle.
Using VR as a quality assurance tool allows
the client to confirm that all works have been
completed to a high standard, and are as per
design.
The use of VR allows construction firms to
convert traditional 2D drawings into 3D models
for client walkthroughs and visualisation, and
as such, gives clients confidence in the
proposed tender submission. This will give
firms a competitive advantage and
differentiates them from others within the
tendering process.
VR can be used on projects to fully immerse a
worker in a digital environment, thus allowing
training to be conducted before entry onto a
project. The use of VR allows project members
to access high-risk environments, and enables
them to see what the consequences are if
processes and rules are not adhered to.
VR can reduce design waste by enabling faster
decision making, which reduces overall timescales
by identifying design issues and changes before
construction begins. VR is also used to improve
constructability, which is a really important
aspect for both cost and time savings in
construction.
