GPRS 2D floor plan delivers quick 2D CAD plan views of buildings, facilities, and sites, capturing existing conditions to streamline planning and enhance communication with clients and contractors.

We utilize 3D laser scanning to capture accurate building measurements and CAD software to create detailed 2-D as-built floor plans and 2D layouts. Every building we measure meets BOMA standards, facilitating precise BOMA calculations for lease area analysis.

Access essential property details — including layout, dimensions, and information on rooms, walls, doors, windows, and architectural, structural, and MEP features — to clearly communicate design intent, coordinate construction activities, reduce risk, develop emergency plans, safety procedures, and more.

Schematic Floor Plans

Obtain a basic spatial layout of a building, highlighting architectural and structural elements like walls, windows, doors, furniture, and fixtures without requiring precise measurements. A schematic floor plan serves as a visual tool to conceptualize space and layout, enabling designers and contractors to collaborate, discuss, and refine ideas effectively.

2D CAD Floor Plans

Created using CAD software, 2D CAD floor plans contain detailed and precise building information, including layout, dimensions, annotations, and material specifications for architectural, structural, and MEP system components. 2D CAD floor plan is essential for design planning, technical documentation, obtaining permits, and guiding the construction process.

3D CAD Floor Plans

Receive detailed and accurate representation of architectural, structural, and MEP components with heights, widths, and depths, providing precise spatial data of a building, site, structure, or object. 3D CAD floor plan provides information necessary for design, engineering, and construction to enhance the planning, development, and execution of projects.

Emergency Floor Plans

Create an accurate plan view of your floor plan layout which can be used to create emergency plans and escape routes, map important emergency features like fire extinguishers, water or electrical shut-offs, and mark-out gathering points. You can then export, save, and print your floor plan files to utilize as part of your emergency preparedness plan.

Reflected Ceiling Plans

Reflected ceiling plans (RCP) are 2D CAD drawings that represent the ceiling of a room as if reflected onto a mirror placed on the floor, aligning the ceiling plan’s orientation with the floor plan. These drawings capture ceiling heights, slopes, bulkheads, lighting fixtures, HVAC mounts, sprinklers, smoke detectors, and other system components, providing essential information to identify existing features and support renovation or refurbishment planning.

3D Virtual Tours

Utilize 3D virtual tours to aid in project planning, for example proposing building renovations while minimizing interference with existing elements or visualizing the placement of equipment and inventory to optimize facility layout. Visually walk the site to develop emergency action procedures and safety protocols or identify potential hazards in a building or facility.

BOMA Measurements

GPRS provides lease area analysis using the latest BOMA standards to calculate occupant and rentable areas. Services include black-and-white floor plans, color-coded lease plans, suite drawings, and comprehensive building analysis summaries to support lease optimization, rent escalations, space allocation, and property valuation.

Emergency Planning

Utilize floor plan to create a 2D map of your workplace layout and develop and train employees on safety protocols, including fire safety measures, evacuation processes, active shooter drills, and natural disaster preparedness. Document the exact locations of fire extinguishers, emergency exits, escape routes, and shelter-in-place locations for employees and first responders.

Visualize Critical Infrastructure

Floor plan supplies project teams with critical infrastructure information, precisely documenting the layout, dimensions, and details of a building or site. It provides an accurate top-down view of rooms, walls, doors, windows, architectural, structural, and MEP features, plus utility and concrete markings to improve communication with clients and contractors.

Accurate Facility Layouts

Provide floor plan for building owners, facility managers, and maintenance personnel to understand the layout, configuration, and equipment on site. Use the existing conditions information to develop design plans, contractor bids, material estimates, and construction sequencing, minimizing change orders and interference with existing building elements.

///PROJECT CYCLE SOLUTIONS

GPRS can provide solutions for the entire life cycle of your projects

Floor plans can be developed for any building, structure, space, or object and are typically categorized as either 2D or 3D floor plans. A 2D floor plan presents a two-dimensional view without depth, while a 3D floor plan adds depth, perspective, and may incorporate colors, textures, and surface details to provide a more realistic visualization of spaces. This 3D perspective enhances the understanding of the property's layout.

Floor plans deliver accurate spatial and subsurface data, creating valuable as-builts that integrate seamlessly into your existing workflows.

Planning & Design

Capture above and below ground as-built data

Utilize spatial and subsurface drawings, maps, and models to reduce errors, clashes, and change orders

Create finish drawings to reference for maintenance and updates

Construction

Receive accurate architectural, structural, and MEP system layout, plus utility locate and concrete field markings

As-built data aids design planning, contractor bids, material estimates, and construction sequencing

Annotate plans with video, photos, URLs, or text for easier communication and collaboration

O&M/Remodel

Reference materials for future renovation and repair needs

Floor plans are technical drawings illustrating the interior and exterior details of a site, providing critical dimensions of building elements such as rooms, walls, doors, windows, architectural, structural, and MEP features, roof, façade, utility locations, concrete markings, and more. They can include additional annotations to convey information, such as material specifications, labels, leaders, and notes. Floor plans deliver valuable site information to architects, engineers, and contractors to expedite planning, design, calculations, and ultimately decisions, making them an integral part of any project.

Floor plans can be created of any building, space, structure, or object and are categorized into two types, 2D floor plan and 3D floor plan. A 2D plan is a plan view drawing featuring two dimensions without depth. A 3D plan depicts the layout adding depth from varied angles and can include colors, textures, prints, and other surface properties to give a realistic idea of spaces. It adds a 3D perspective to any property for enhanced visualization. Once your building is in CAD format, tenant areas can easily be adjusted and recalculated.

Floor plans deliver precise spatial and subsurface data, delivering valuable as-builts for architecture, real estate, interior design planning, emergency planning, property appraisals, and lease analysis.

Time is money. As-built drawings are often out-of-date and inaccurate, leading to unexpected issues and critical delays. When you choose GPRS, you provide your team with precise as-built data and models for reliable project planning, reducing the risk of change orders and project delays. Our 3D laser scanning services provide the link between unknown existing conditions and a true digital twin.
