Scanning allows digital copies to be made of any building element, often while it still remains set into the buildings fabric. The resulting digital dataset is used as a means for making a 3d printed or formed replica at any scale, for use in restoration or fundraising efforts.

Using a 3d scanner, sections and elements of a building can be scanned to form a highly detailed 3d digital dataset. This data can be enhanced in the computer, allowing for virtual repair of damaged areas or weathering. The final digital dataset is then used for 3d printing or CNC machine cutting for replication of the element.
Building Restoration
Digital scans serve as a foundation for various applications, including 3D printing of architectural elements for restoration purposes and the creation of immersive virtual imagery, allowing viewers to explore and experience historical buildings in virtual environments.
