MSE Engenharia was responsible for the Laser Scanner survey and for the BIM modeling of part of the Distribution Center of Kimberly-Clark, in Camaçari, São Paulo.
A global company with more than 150 years of history, Kimberly-Clark is recognized for leading hygiene and health care brands. The objective of the work carried out by MSE Engenharia was to support the project to expand another axis of the warehouse, through precise field surveying, 3D modeling and development of architectural and civil projects.

The laser scanner is a cutting-edge technology that uses laser beams to capture, in an extremely precise way, the physical characteristics of an environment or structure. This capture generates a cloud of three-dimensional dots that faithfully represent the scanned space. From this point cloud, it is possible to create detailed and georeferenced 3D models, essential for the analysis, planning, and execution of projects in various areas, such as engineering, architecture and civil construction.
These models allow us to visualize and simulate the real environment with millimeter precision, being especially valuable in retrofit projects, where it is necessary to work with existing structures and ensure that new interventions are perfectly integrated. The laser scanner is also widely used in topographic surveys, historical heritage documentation, and in the analysis of complex infrastructures, such as industrial plants and piping systems.
In addition to precision, the laser scanner offers benefits such as the reduction of rework, optimization of budgets and schedules, and greater safety in interventions, since it allows a detailed analysis even before the start of the works. This results in significant time and cost savings, while increasing project quality and reliability.
Three-dimensional survey of existing areas by means of laser scanning, ensuring accuracy and reliability of the data.
Generation and treatment of the point cloud from the 3D survey, serving as a technical basis for modeling and analysis.
Development of integrated three-dimensional models, facilitating visualization, compatibility, and decision-making.
Project development in a BIM environment, promoting integration between disciplines and greater management efficiency.
Consolidation of technical solutions with definition of systems and construction criteria to make the project feasible.
Design and detailing of spaces, considering functionality and integration with other disciplines.
Development of the civil and infrastructure solutions necessary for the implementation of the building.
