Key Learning Outcomes

• Place scaffold bay lines directly over as-built scan data using ScaffPlan inside SketchUp.
• Derive accurate bay widths from real site measurements using point cloud data.
• Use Clip Box and inspection tools in Trimble Scan Essentials to isolate constraints and analyse clearances.
• Perform clash detection using Inspection Map with defined distance tolerances.
• Optimise bay widths to resolve clashes with trees, fencing, and fixed obstacles.
• Modify multiple bays efficiently using controlled parameter selection (untick all → change specific parameter only).
• Strategically plan scaffold access (stairs and ladders) based on real site restrictions.
• Calculate correct top working platform heights from measured scan data.
• Adjust scaffold geometry to suit balcony undersides and façade variations.
• Use Neighbor Bay Adjustment for parametric clash resolution without rebuilding geometry.
