Existing Conditions Modelling

Accurate, build-ready Revit models from 3D scans – so you can start designing with confidence.

Accurate Revit Models

Our existing conditions models are clean, coordinated and ready to go. Built from point cloud scans, they’re accurate to within millimetres and structured for architectural workflows.

We manage the whole process – from site scanning through to final file delivery – and our models are built in Revit with real-world logic, not just geometry.

Model Delivery You Can Trust

Unlike offshore or generic scanning services, we’re architects. We understand what the model needs to do – support documentation, enable clash detection, and reflect true site conditions.

We’ve reviewed and rebuilt hundreds of flawed surveyor models. That’s why we’ve built our process to deliver files you can use immediately – not clean up later.

WORK WITH US

We’re ready to help shape your next project with clarity, precision, and grounded design thinking.

Whether you’re at concept stage or ready to document, let’s talk.

Accurate, Build-Ready 3D Revit Models

We deliver accurate, build-ready 3D Revit models based on laser scan data, optimised for architectural design and documentation.

Our standard output is LOD200, structured with Echo’s Revit family libraries – or yours if provided – and ready to plug into your existing workflow.

Typical scope includes:

  • Walls (modelled as straight unless deviation >30mm)
  • Floors (Modelled with shape editing if deviation >50mm)
  • Ceilings
  • Columns, beams and primary structure
  • Furniture and fittings as generic components
  • Revit topography based on point cloud (detailed survey optional)
  • Property boundary using LGA data
  • Revit model delivered in 2022 format as .RVT

Drawing package (on request):

  • Site Plan
  • Floor Plans (Basement, Ground, Level 01 if applicable)
  • Reflected Ceiling Plans
  • Roof Plan
  • Elevations (external only)

We also provide the registered .RCP file (with photo spheres), decimated to 5–10 mm precision, and aligned to True North within the Revit model.

{We’ve had the pleasure of working closely with Mitch & Ben from Echo Architects, on multiple projects, most recently for the design of our new office fit-out, and we couldn’t be more pleased with the results. From the very start, Echo Architects demonstrated a deep understanding of our needs, always listening closely to our ideas and providing solutions that were both creative and practical. Their approach is highly collaborative and solution-focused, ensuring that our objectives were always met with precision and efficiency.

{Echo Architects really push the boundaries of modern architecture. Ben and Mitch not only deliver innovative, imaginative and inspiring solutions to the problems their clients are faced with, but also do so quickly and efficiently. We've loved collaborating with them on new ways to present projects; exploring ways in which 3D rendering and AI can bring projects to life for clients to deliver the best outcomes, and enable the most effective decision making.

Frequently Asked Questions

Have a question that hasn’t been answered below? Send us an enquiry or call us.

Do you handle the scanning, or do we need to provide it?

We take care of the scanning process through a trusted partner and manage all coordination. You’ll receive the RCP file and Revit model together.

What level of detail can you model?

Our standard delivery is LOD200, suitable for concept design and DA/BA documentation. Higher LOD can be scoped depending on your needs.

How accurate is the model?

The point cloud itself has 5–10mm precision in the decimated format.

How long does it take?

Most models are delivered within 5–10 business days after scanning, depending on scope.

Can we use our own Revit families or standards?

Yes – we can model using your template, families and documentation standards if provided at briefing.

What’s included in the final handover?
  • Revit model (.RVT)
  • Point cloud file (.RCP with photospheres)
  • Supporting Revit families
  • Optional 2D drawings or exports (.DWG/.IFC)
How do I brief you for an existing conditions model?

We’ll need a site address, intended use of the model, and any existing plans or survey data. From there we handle the scan and model delivery.
