The PLURAL concept announced that the partners from NTUA performed 3D scanning of the Kašava demo building. The “Kašava” multiple dwelling is situated in the North-East part of the Zlín region (ca. 17 km from Zlín). It is composed of 2 flats for the teachers of a nearby nursery school and is permanently occupied. The façade is made of a 45 cm full brick wall (no insulation). The building is classified as “F” in the energy consumption system used in the Czech legislation. 

The whole building envelope was scanned in detail with accuracy within 1mm, in less than one working day. 

The purpose is to provide a comprehensive point cloud, from which valuable data can be obtained at any stage of the PLURAL project, with precision and without the need for additional measurements. The weather conditions were perfect, which is significant for the operation of the 3D scanner. Also, seeing that the upper levels of the building are complex, the use of a lifting machine provided by the mayor of Kašava, was essential in order to have a complete point cloud.
