3DGS
Not every deliverable needs to be a BIM model.
Solid, surface, and mesh models straight from your point cloud, for design, visualization, fabrication, and animation work, a different job from BIM, not a lesser one.
Geometry built for what you're actually doing with it.
| Item | On the file |
|---|---|
| Mesh models | High-fidelity surface meshes for visualization, 3D printing reference, or complex organic geometry that does not fit a parametric BIM model. |
| Surface models | NURBS-style surfaces for design and engineering work where smooth, editable curvature matters more than BIM metadata. |
| Solid models | Watertight solids for fabrication, CNC, or manufacturing workflows that need a true volumetric model, not a shell. |
| Animation & web views | Lightweight, optimized geometry for browser-based viewers, flythroughs, and marketing visualization. |
| File formats | OBJ, STL or FBX, whichever your downstream software takes. |

Questions specific to this deliverable.
Why not just do a BIM model for everything?
BIM modeling is built for parametric elements: walls, doors, ducts, the pieces a building information model is organized around. Complex organic geometry, fabrication-grade solids, and lightweight animation assets usually need a mesh, surface, or solid modelling tool instead, which is why we keep a separate pipeline for that work rather than forcing it through a BIM workflow.
Can you combine this with a BIM deliverable?
Yes, many projects need both: a BIM model for coordination and a mesh or surface model for visualization or fabrication. We quote them as a combined scope.
