Facade
The scan walkthrough covers the facade from curb to second-floor sill and both approaches along the sidewalk. Photos are marked with the label of each Measured Point they show.
Scan variation on facade dimensions is typically half an inch to two inches, wider on glass. Not an instrument of record. Use Measured Points for anything your team will fabricate or price against.
Measured Points
Points listed by the client, each read at the stated tolerance class with the instrument and method shown, and marked in the photo set. Heights above reach were read with the laser from sidewalk level. A tolerance class is the class the client selected; it is not a promise that every entry falls within it.
