PC X-RAY AS-BUILTS™ IN CONSTRUCTION

February 22, 2012

Imagine this: You are planning to start some remodeling work that requires opening up a wall and you’re concerned about what utilities or mechanical systems might be hiding behind the wallboard. Do you consult your as-built plans? Probably, but do you really trust them to be exact? Probably not. What if you could put on your superhero cape and use your X-ray vision? Believe it or not, now you can!

With our PC X-Ray As-Builts™, clients can see behind the walls or above the ceilings in spaces we have constructed. You can be sure of what’s hiding there and not risk the chance of serious or disruptive damage to important building infrastructure.

Here’s how it works: With our panoramic equipment and technology, we can photographically document the systems that will soon be hidden in walls and ceilings. We create a 360-degree interactive image that is both easy to use and accurate. See for yourself:

Additionally, we have taken the technology a step further by creating an inexpensive virtual window utilizing existing technology. You can step into any room, move the virtual window around the room, and you’ll be looking through a “window” that peers into the wall or ceiling as it was constructed. Dimensionality and locations of piping, conduit, ductwork, and other such items are no longer a mystery.

When installed on a workstation, these images can be linked and navigated either through an index page or with the use of hot spots or buttons in the photos themselves. For example, click on a door and be taken directly to the image of the neighboring room. This can be taken even farther by linking to things such as detailed photos of a particular object. Even equipment operating and maintenance manuals can be integrated. This technology can be tailored to the particular needs of the client or facility management group. With PC X-Ray As-Builts™, the possibilities are almost endless.
