Visualize and Plan Construction (Using Laser Scan Data During Construction)
Quantapoint provides visualization of proposed construction and installation plans with the Digitized Facility™ to identify and resolve potential issues, reducing field welds, construction clashes and construction time.
Visualization and Planning for Zero-Defect Construction

Zero-Defect Construction™ is free of construction errors, such as incorrect cut locations, spool assembly errors and installation interferences. Quantapoint employs an experienced team of specialists to provide visualization of proposed designs and construction plans using the Digitized Facility™. This helps ensure that Zero-Defect Designs™ and Zero-Defect Fabrication™ are reflected in construction. By visualizing and planning construction, Quantapoint clients have been able to reduce field fit-up welds by 98%, construction clashes by 98% and construction time by 20%.
Ensure Lines are Assembled Properly with Assembly Diagrams
An Assembly Diagram is a system or line based set of 3D spool models combined to show the final assembled line and enhanced to color-code and annotate each spool. These diagrams help the construction team - which typically has little direct knowledge of the design - better understand how the individual spools fit together. This helps ensure that the final assembled lines are assembled and fit into the facility with minimal or no issues and is ideal when a project has a tight schedule, teams are distributed geographically or multiple languages are being used.
Issue-Free Installation with Construction Sequence Plans
A Construction Sequence Plan is a step-by-step visualization of construction, including where existing piping must be cut and the sequence for installation of new items. This enables the project team to review and approve construction sequences before they commence and provides a guide for personnel in the field. This helps ensure that the construction sequence will proceed with minimal or no issues and is ideal when a project contains has a tight schedule, multiple languages are being used and hot work in the facility must be minimized.
Identify Potential Issues with Construction Visualization
A Construction Visualization is an animation of construction, such as an equipment path, rigging plan or an entire sequence. This makes the overall construction more understandable for review and preparation, especially for large, distributed or multi-lingual teams. This helps ensure that construction proceeds with minimal or no issues and is ideal for complex projects.
Typical Benefits from Visualizing and Planning Construction
By visualizing and planning construction (PDF), Quantapoint clients have typically been able to
- Reduce field fit-up welds by 98% - Visualize construction and installation plans to eliminate unnecessary field welds
- Cut construction clashes and interferences by 98% - Ensure that zero-defect design and fabrication are reflected in construction
- Decrease construction time by 20% - Identify and correct potential construction issues before they occur
