Canvas

Canvas is used to create as-built documentation of existing buildings, primarily for renovation and remodeling projects. Here's a breakdown of its key uses:

Accurate As-Built Models:

Canvas uses reality capture technology (like 3D scanning) to create highly accurate 2D and 3D models of existing buildings. This eliminates the need for manual measurements and hand-drawn sketches, which can be time-consuming and prone to errors.

Detailed Floor Plans and Reports:

Canvas automatically generates detailed floor plans and reports with precise measurements of key building elements, such as walls, doors, windows, and countertops. This provides accurate information for planning renovations, ordering materials, and ensuring that new designs fit the existing space.

Streamlined Design Process:

By providing accurate as-built documentation, Canvas helps streamline the design process for renovations and remodeling projects. Designers can work with confidence, knowing that their plans are based on accurate measurements and a realistic representation of the existing space.

Reduced Errors and Rework:

The accuracy of Canvas models helps minimize errors and costly rework during construction. By having a precise understanding of the existing space, contractors can avoid surprises and ensure that renovations are completed efficiently.

Time Savings:

Canvas saves time for construction and design professionals by automating the process of creating as-built documentation. This allows them to focus on other aspects of the project, such as design development and client communication.

Canvas is used to create a reliable digital record of existing buildings, providing accurate information for planning and executing renovation and remodeling projects. It helps improve efficiency, reduce errors, and streamline the overall design and construction process.
