On Thursday 29th of April 2021 the scanning of the castle, horse stables and barns of Hof Ter Laken, situated in Booischot (Heist-op-den-Berg) in Belgium. Project Partner BIM-Y made the scans. The architectural office received the data in June and is currently reviewing and evaluating it. At the end of 2020, project partner Kempens Landschap already had 3D scans of the buildings performed by another company, so it will be very interesting to compare their data to the data from BIM-Y in terms of quality and detail. In this way a useful evaluation can be made.
The next step is to see whether the 3D scans can be used for drawing up floor plans, cuts, etc. so that the demolition file can be drawn up more easily. It will also be examined whether it is possible to establish a digital link to certain elements that will be sold online, for example, on the basis of the digital copy that is now available of the buildings.
Two barns behind the stables/depot will be deconstructed in the winter of 2021-2022. Or at least that's what they are planning for now. If the administrative procedures run out, it will be the spring of 2022.
The interior of 1 part of the depot will also be deconstructed in that period. The other buildings on the domain will be preserved and will be restored in the coming years, preserving their heritage value.
See the video of the scanning of this beautiful monumental castle and barns.
