Overview of FARO As-Built 2025 for Revit
FARO As-Built for AUTOdesk Revit is a specialized software plugin designed for architects, engineers, and general contractors working with 3D laser scan data in BIM (Building Information Modeling) workflows. It enables quick and precise analysis, modeling, alignment, editing, and extraction of point cloud data directly within the Revit environment, facilitating accurate as-built documentation for building redesign, maintenance, or enhancement projects. This helps reduce rework, cost overruns, and ensures designs align with real-world site conditions.
The 2025 version (specifically v2025.0, released on June 27, 2025) integrates seamlessly with the Revit user interface and supports large point cloud datasets, making it ideal for converting scan data into native Revit objects and BIM models.
Key Features
- Point Cloud Processing: Intuitive workflows for importing, aligning, and sectioning 3D scan data to create precise BIM elements like walls, floors, and structural components.
- BIM Model Creation: Custom tools for automated object fitting, clash detection, and volume calculations within Revit.
- Integration with As-Built Suite: Part of the broader FARO As-Built Software Suite, which bundles this plugin with As-Built Modeler (for standalone modeling) and As-Built for AutoCAD, all accessible via subscription.
- Efficiency Gains: Reduces time for information extraction from scans, supporting full building lifecycle workflows from capture to verification.
