As-Built Plans
Project Overview
Situated in Miami’s Morningside neighborhood, this two-story 4,158 sq. ft. residence combines modern architectural lines with decorative wrought-iron details, framed by lush vegetation that enhances the property’s tropical setting. The home includes three bedrooms, five bathrooms, and a separate guest house adjacent to the pool, creating a complete family-oriented layout. The project scope focused on capturing existing conditions with precision to guide upcoming renovations and design coordination.
Deliverables
Architectural As-Built Documentation: Site Plan, Floor Plans, Reflected Ceiling Plans, Cross-sections, Exterior Elevations, Window/Door Schedules.
LOD 300 Revit Model: Detailed 3D Visualization Model & Views for coordination
CAD Drawings & PDF Sheets – Fully annotated and coordinated documentation
Site Photo Record: Annotated Reference Images captured for design context
Our Role & Technology
DCMS documented the property using a hybrid workflow based on manual laser measurements, legacy CAD drawings, and photo mapping. This process ensured dimensional accuracy and reliable outputs for technical design and renovation.
Captured floor transitions and layouts through manual laser tools, validating dimensional consistency
Reconstructed the architectural base in Revit from CAD inputs for precise vertical and spatial coordination
Produced a linked photo record map, connecting site images with plan viewpoints to enhance design interpretation
Key Challenges & Solutions
Lack of 3D scan data: Addressed with manual laser inputs and cross-checked CAD baselines for accuracy
Complexity in photo referencing: Solved by mapping images directly to plan views for design clarity
High documentation standards: All drawings annotated and standardized in Revit and AutoCAD to align with BIM workflows
