From paper to digital building measurement in Türkiye

Civil engineer Taner Tezcan left tape measures and paper drawings. With the FJD Trion S2 the crew walks the building and the office gets colourised 3D models without waiting for the return trip.

Taner Tezcan has been a civil engineer since 2004 and has run his own office since 2011. About 95 percent of the work is public-sector. The core is earthquake safety: strengthening, new design, and checking how safe buildings are. That needs dense, reliable building measurements.

At the start the team measured point by point with tapes and lasers, wrote everything by hand, and drew it up in the office. Complex buildings took days to months. Architects and engineers spent long stretches on site — and data from distant jobs only appeared when staff returned.

S2 as a standard tool

With the FJD Trion S2 the crew walks rooms and neighbourhoods and builds the 3D record as they move. Taner says they could set the traditional methods aside. He names three gains: about 3 cm detail, fewer site trips for engineers and architects, and 360 imagery plus colourised models available as soon as the scan is done.

He is as clear about software as hardware: without good software the scanner is useless. FJD Trion Model on PC and iPad, cloud sharing, measuring in the view, and regular updates keep the workflow moving. Support answered quickly when they called.
