Interactive 3D Building Model: See the Numbers as a Structure

Numbers on a page are abstract. The 3D Building Model makes extracted specs tangible — a 400-foot building that should be 40 feet wide is obvious the moment you look at the model.

The interactive wireframe is built on Three.js with OrbitControls: drag to rotate, scroll to zoom, and pan to reposition. The model reflects the actual extracted geometry from your project's drawings.

Real-time reactivity

Edit any dimension in the data table below the renderer and the 3D model updates immediately — no save required. The moment you change the eave height from 24 to 26 feet, the model stretches to match. This makes data errors obvious at a glance before they make it into a vendor quote.

What the model shows

  • Building width, length, and eave height
  • Roof slope and ridge position
  • Bay spacing and column locations
  • Frame type (clearspan, modular, single slope, lean-to)

Fields that drive the model are marked with a cyan indicator in the data table so you know which edits affect the visualization.

Progressive rendering

The model renders from basic project dimensions even before full analysis completes. As analysis fills in more specs, the model updates to reflect the complete extracted geometry.

Project thumbnail

A small static 3D thumbnail appears in the project page header as a visual identifier. Every project looks different — the thumbnail gives each bid a unique visual identity that makes it easier to scan across the dashboard.
