Fire, evacuation and escape route plans in Switzerland

In an existing building, an industrial site, a shop, a hotel or an administrative building, the documents available are often incomplete, old or inaccurate. In order to prepare a fire safety plan, a fire evacuation plan, an escape route plan or an update file, you first need to have a precise overview of the existing situation.

At 3D Scan Bat, we put the technology of the 3D laser scanning for technical building documentation. We capture the existing situation with precision, then produce clear, usable plans that are consistent with the reality of the site. This database enables owners, operators, architects, building managers, general contractors and specialist agents to work faster, with fewer errors and better visibility of existing circulation, access, technical rooms and volumes.

floor plan with escape routes and fire escape routes

This plan is a graphical base based on a 3D survey of the existing building. It is intended to make it easier to carry out fire plans, evacuation plans and escape routes by fire safety specialists.
3D Scan Bat does not produce regulatory leakage maps.

3D Scan Bat carries out accurate 3D laser surveys of existing buildings and produces reliable plans as a basis for fire plans, evacuation plans and escape routes. This documentation enables fire safety specialists to work on an accurate representation of the building and prepare compliant plans, free from errors linked to out-of-date data.

Why create or update a fire plan?

A fire plan is not just a drawing. It is an operational document that must reflect the building as it really exists. Once a site has been transformed, partitioned, extended or partially renovated, the old plans quickly lose their value.

A serious update will allow you to :

  • build on a reliable foundation of the existing building
  • clearly visualise circulation and access
  • identify technical areas, sensitive premises and volumes at risk
  • prepare a clearer evacuation plan
  • facilitate the work of technical experts and specialist agents
  • build up your own documentation base for a fire compliance project

Our approach: 3D survey + drawing

3D Scan Bat works on existing buildings to produce accurate, usable documentation.
Our method is based on :

  • 3D laser scanning of the building
  • the creation of a reliable point cloud
  • 2D / CAD / DWG / PDF drawings according to project requirements
  • the ability to integrate data into a process BIM or as part of broader technical coordination

This approach is particularly useful when the original plans are missing, incomplete or do not reflect the reality on the ground. Instead of working on assumptions, you work on what actually exists.

What types of building plans can we prepare?

Fire plan

We create the graphic base of the building to enable the preparation or updating of a clear, legible and usable fire plan.

Fire safety plan

We produce precise technical drawings to support documentation for site managers, operators and fire safety specialists.

Fire evacuation plan

A good evacuation plan depends on a good survey. We provide up-to-date plans that make it easy to show exits, circulation routes and areas to be made safe.

Escape route plan

If the circulation system has changed over time, the 3D survey can be used to start from a real base of the building and redocument the changes. escape routes and evacuation routes.

Fire compliance plan

As part of a regularisation, audit, transformation or document update project, we provide reliable existing plans to support the work of the relevant agents.

Fire safety system plan

We can also prepare the planimetric base needed to read an SSI project or update the documentation for a fire safety system in an existing building.

For which buildings should a fire plan be drawn up?

Our services are aimed in particular at :

  • administrative buildings
  • industrial and craft buildings
  • hotels and accommodation establishments
  • retail areas
  • schools and public buildings
  • residential buildings and existing properties
  • complex sites with technical premises or successive transformations

Why use a 3D survey for your fire projects?

The main problem with existing fire projects is not the theory. It's the gap between the old plans and reality.

The 3D survey allows you to :

  • save time in the documentation phase
  • avoid forgetting obsolete plans
  • reduce on-site rework
  • have a common base for all stakeholders
  • improve the legibility of future technical plans

In short: you secure the start of the project.

Why choose 3D Scan Bat?

3D Scan Bat specialises in 3D scanning of buildings in Switzerland, the production of architectural plansthe DAOthe point cloud and the BIM modelling. This expertise enables an existing building to be rapidly transformed into a structured, accurate and usable document base for specific technical uses. 

We're there when you need reliable plans, particularly for fire safety, evacuation, conversion, technical operation and updating projects. The site already highlights this positioning for 3D surveys, architectural plans, CAD deliverables and uses linked to technical building documentation. 

Contact us for an analysis of your building and a quotation tailored to your site.

The fire plan covers more broadly the spatial and technical organisation related to fire safety. The evacuation plan focuses on the exit of occupants and the rapid reading of escape routes.

As soon as a building has been modified, reallocated, partitioned or extended, or if an existing plan no longer accurately reflects the actual state of the site.

No. The 3D survey provides a reliable basis for the existing building. It then facilitates the work of safety managers, architects, technical offices and specialist contractors.

Yes, 3D surveying is particularly useful for existing, occupied or converted buildings, where the original documentation is no longer sufficient.
