As-Built Drawings & Existing Condition Plans

Turn verified existing-condition information into a clean drawing or BIM base.

Illustrative workflow — scan to existing-conditions model
What this solves

Clear scope.
Useful output.

Artimist converts reliable survey information, field measurements, scans, point clouds and existing records into clear as-built plans, elevations, sections or BIM models.

Architects, builders, property teams and homeowners who already have verified site information and need it converted into organized CAD, Revit or PDF existing-condition documentation.

Full service overview and audience

Artimist converts reliable survey information, field measurements, scans, point clouds and existing records into clear as-built plans, elevations, sections or BIM models. We distinguish what was measured from what was inferred so the resulting base can be used responsibly for renovation and documentation.

Problems we solve

Where we become useful.

  • Field information exists but only as measurements, scan data, markups or disconnected legacy drawings.
  • A renovation needs a clean existing-condition base before proposed work can be coordinated.
  • Old drawings do not clearly distinguish verified current conditions from historic information.

Working route

How the project moves.

Selected visuals illustrate the stages; they are not a single-project before-and-after sequence. Concept studies are not issued construction documents.

Existing source information reviewed for drafting01

Review the source

We identify which information is verified, which is historic and which is missing before drafting begins.

Scan information converted into a BIM model02

Build the existing-condition base

Plans, elevations, sections or the BIM model are created from the supplied verified information at the agreed level of detail.

Checked Revit model and drawing output03

Check and hand over

The output is checked against the source and issued with its intended use and any unresolved assumptions made visible.

Before we start

Useful answers.

Can you measure my property remotely?

No. We can turn measurements, surveys or scans supplied by you or a local survey professional into drawings, but remote drafting does not replace physical field verification.

Can you create as-built drawings from a point cloud?

Yes. Point-cloud to BIM and Scan to BIM can be scoped where registered scan data is available.

Can you redraw old PDF plans into CAD?

Yes. We can digitize and clean old drawings, while clearly identifying that a redraw is not the same as verification of current site conditions.

What files can you deliver?

Depending on scope, PDF, DWG and Revit RVT files can be delivered.

Working standard

Clear before commitment.

Scope, confidentiality and handover are agreed in writing. Project-specific signed terms always take priority.

01

Scope first

Deliverables, timing, revisions and fees are agreed before production.

02

Confidential when needed

NDA-based workflows are available before sensitive files are shared.

03

Defined handover

Final PDFs, DWGs, RVTs, images, films or source files follow the written scope.

04

Honest local boundary

Required stamps, seals and statutory certification stay with the appropriately licensed local professional.

Permit-support may include package preparation, coordination and submission support when agreed. Artimist does not supply a regional architectural or engineering stamp; any legally required stamp, seal or certification must come from the appropriately licensed local professional.
