CAD Drawing Audit
Reviewed 2D CAD sets to identify elements, layers, and conversion requirements.
Residential Building
CAD to BIM
CAD to BIM conversion producing a LOD 300 BIM model with accurate architectural element representation for a residential project in the USA.
Overview
Project Overview
This residential project in the USA required converting existing CAD documentation into a LOD 300 BIM model with accurate architectural element representation. Our team developed the model following client standards and residential design requirements.
The deliverable provides a structured 3D model that supports design review, coordination, and downstream project workflows.

Client Challenges
Pain Points of the Client
Residential CAD documentation often lacks the 3D intelligence needed for modern design and coordination workflows.
01
2D to 3D Conversion Accuracy
CAD drawings must be converted with precise architectural element representation at LOD 300.
02
Element Detail Requirements
Walls, openings, finishes, and fixtures need accurate modeling for downstream use.
03
Client Standards Compliance
Models must follow client-specific BIM standards and naming conventions.
04
Residential Layout Complexity
Multi-room residential layouts require careful modeling of architectural relationships.
Our Approach
How We Solved It
Structured CAD to BIM conversion with LOD 300 architectural modeling and quality validation.
Revit Model Setup
Configured Revit project with client templates, levels, and grids.
LOD 300 Element Modeling
Built architectural elements at LOD 300 with accurate representation of design intent.
Quality Validation
Validated model against source drawings and client standards before delivery.
Execution Strategy
A Structured CAD to BIM Workflow - Phase by Phase
Delivery moved from CAD intake through model setup, LOD 300 modeling, and final validation.
