Flooding Anniversary

One year ago, British Columbia was hit by a deluge of rain that caused flooding and significant damage to several areas of our province, most significantly locally, the Sumas/Abbotsford region. With the occurrence of such significant weather events becoming more frequent, preparedness must be considered paramount to buyers and builders alike.

With the use of advanced technology to provide accurate building information modeling, architects, contractors, and designers can view inefficiencies and estimate how fire, earthquakes, and floods may impact a building. 

Make the recovery process simpler!

Should there ever be significant damage to a structure, an advanced scan can provide an accurate as constructed model for repair, making the recovery process simpler and more efficient. 

Invaluable Information

Advanced scans also provide up to date information (rather than a 2D blueprint or plan from before the structure was completed) for owners to create evacuation routes/plans. Advanced scans can also provide emergency services with pertinent information for rescue in the event of a disaster such as the location of exits, gas lines, and the materials used in the structure which would be invaluable in an emergency situation. 

Not only is the use of advanced scans a consideration for new construction, it is possibly even more beneficial to model older structures to obtain as constructed 3D plans to analyze them for deficiencies and bring them up to today’s standards.
