PRECISE DATA CAPTURE FOR OPTIMAL DATA CENTER CONSTRUCTION
- Follow data center construction progress.
- Provide integrated project delivery (IPD) visibility for all construction processes
- Comprehensive Facility Documentation
Reality capture offers tremendous value in the construction and management of data centers, providing accurate, ground-up data that supports every phase of the project. With the integration of new AI servers, it’s critical that electrical and other systems are upgraded to handle increased loads and capacities. This is where reality capture becomes indispensable. It precisely locates buried utilities and identifies assets hidden behind walls, allowing field workers to avoid potentially dangerous encounters and prevent costly damage to property.
Additionally, 3D laser scanning can calculate concrete pour volumes in real-time, providing immediate insights that help control material costs and prevent overuse. It also supports floor flatness checks—critical for the installation of large water tanks—and ensures that concrete decks have the structural integrity needed for heavy equipment. For structural support, reality capture verifies steel installations and through comparative analysis, can identify sagging in load bearing structural analysis that could compromise the concrete decks, lead to cracking, and overall address issues before they escalate.
Moreover, reality capture facilitates CDF calculations by volume, ensuring that heat dissipation meets specified requirements on electrical conduit banks. This is crucial for maintaining optimal operating temperatures and preventing overheating.
From precise measurements to virtual design and construction (VDC), reality capture ensures that every component of the data center is built to spec, improving safety, efficiency, and long-term performance.
This historically has proven to save project budgets 30% or more by reduction or elimination of rework due to installation mistakes, locate fees, potholing for assets, and other hidden costs common to construction.
