• RATIO Architects in Indianapolis, USA specializes in historical buildings and restoration of ancient monuments.
• In order to repair the engraving group at the top of a building, they need an efficient and executable solution to estimate the damage and specific workload of the object.
• The Bebop-Pro 3D Modeling integrated 3D modeling solution is an effective method with high safety factor and low economic cost, making it easy to complete tasks without climbing to the roof of the building.
RATIO Architects has undertaken a monument restoration project that requires the restoration of a beautifully carved group on the west facade of The South Side Turnverein building. The fix itself is not complicated for RATIO, but the trouble is that the engraving is located on the roof of the building. RATIO staff, if they want to survey the subject matter to calculate the upfront costs, have to use scaffolding or ladders to climb the roof for field measurements. This will be greatly reduced in terms of safety, cost, and work efficiency. This is not what they expected. However, the Parrot integrated 3D modeling solution perfectly helps RATIO solve all the problems and creates a new set of engraved 3D models based on the detection results, enabling them to accurately calculate the project cost and duration, and carry out repair work in time. Avoid delays in construction schedules.
“Parrot Bebop-Pro 3D Modeling is very easy to use, and we are particularly impressed with the accuracy of the preset autonomous flight plan. For companies like ours, taking measurements directly from 3D models is very valuable and can help us. Save a lot of manpower and time." -BENJAMIN L.ROSS, RATIO Project Manager
â— Safe and efficient assessment of historical monuments
The main responsibility of RATIO Architects is how to perfectly repair the work and restore it to its former glory. Before the implementation of the project, RATIO must provide the customer with a complete and valid quotation detailing the specific work required for the project. In order to ensure the accuracy of the quotation, RATIO needs to carefully observe and analyze the objects of the target, which often requires the staff to enter certain hard-to-reach areas or less secure locations. Therefore, cumbersome equipment such as scaffolding and ladders are frequently used, which not only takes a lot of time, but also poses a safety hazard.
â— UAV solution is safe and accurate
In the summer of 2017, RATIO was responsible for the restoration of a beautifully carved sculpture of The South Side Turnverein building, an important landmark of the Indian immigrant community in Indianapolis, and this sculpture is one of the classic designs of the famous company Vonnegut & Bohn. , Benjamin said.
Point Comfort Properties LLC selected RATIO to record and evaluate the actual condition of The South Side Turnverein building, and to plan the site and develop a plan to adapt the building to the company's headquarters for adaptive re-engineering.
The engraving of the west facade of The South Side Turnverein was created by the Austrian-born sculptor Rudolf Schwarz (1865-1912). With detailed images and accurate 3D models, professionally restored artists are able to make an up-to-date assessment of their current condition, allowing the engraving group to return to its original state.
â— Efficient drone solutions combined with leading modeling software
The Parrot's all-in-one 3D modeling solution uses a compact, lightweight drone and the leading data processing software Pix4D to save you time while providing a safer and more cost-effective solution for you to make a quote. .
Parrot Bebop-Pro 3D Modeling's integrated 3D modeling solution enables RATIO to analyze the realities of buildings clearly and efficiently.
Benjamin explained why he would prefer to use Parrot's advanced technology, he said, "If you don't use it, we have to climb the stairs to use scaffolding. For us, time and labor costs are greatly increased and efficiency is low.
â— Create accurate 3D models with cost-effective drones to capture accurate photos
Benjamin flew twice in two consecutive days, each flight lasting 25 minutes, and then produced detailed image renderings and 3D models through professional software. He was very impressed with the performance and software applications of drone flight.
“The FreeFlight Pro professional application and Flight Plan feature experience is very intuitive. After completing the security parameter settings, after a series of manual tests, you can easily get the overall shooting reality you need with Flight Plan and Pix4D. The broken engraving part is also manually The flight mode was clearly and completely recorded, which is very helpful for the repair work."
â— Choose a 3D model suite in the building software to plan your project
Benjamin and other members of the RATIO team praised Parrot Bebop-Pro 3D Modeling for its operational capabilities and stated that it will be considered a preferred survey tool in future implementations. In addition, another highlight of the technology is that the drawn 3D model can be directly imported into other architecture software for drafting refurbishment and recovery project use.
“Parrot Bebop-Pro 3D Modeling is easy to use and impressive, and the accuracy of the autonomous flight program is particularly impressive,†Benjamin said. “Getting measurements directly from 3D models is very valuable for us and can help us save a lot of time. The drawings of many historic buildings are difficult to read due to damage or lack of original parts. And this practical method will be Proof of the value is very valuable, the participation of Parrot Bebop-Pro 3D Modeling really helped us solve the problem, so that we can continue to work on the protection of historical buildings and the collection of important information."
