Snag on drawings & in 3D

Pin findings exactly where they belong

Drop a snag straight onto your PDF floor plan or 3D model and it stays put. Every pin carries its exact location, photos, severity, and the relevant Bbl reference. A finding is never a vague description again. It's a precise point anyone can return to, on screen or on site.

The challenge

"Somewhere on the second floor" isn't good enough

A finding described in words, say "crack near the second-floor stairwell", is surprisingly hard to locate again once you're on site. Without a precise position, you lose time hunting for the right spot, the wrong element sometimes gets fixed, and the issue has to be re-inspected from scratch to confirm. Across a building with hundreds of snags, that ambiguity piles up. You get rework, arguments over what was meant, and findings that quietly get dropped because no one could find them.

Our approach

Location-anchored findings on plan and model

  • Click the exact spot on a PDF floor plan or in the federated 3D model to place a pin.
  • The pin stores its coordinates, so anyone can jump back to the precise location later.
  • Each snag links its photos and the relevant Bbl article alongside the position.
  • Pins stay anchored as you switch storeys, sections, and 2D or 3D views.

Key capabilities

Pin on plan or model

Place a snag directly on a PDF floor plan or in the 3D model. It's the same finding either way, put wherever it's easiest to point at the problem.

Exact coordinates stored

Each pin remembers where it is, so anyone can jump back to the precise spot weeks later, on screen or on site.

Photos and Bbl reference

Every snag keeps its evidence photos and the relevant Bbl article right next to its position.

Anchored across views

Pins stay locked to their location as you switch storeys, cut sections, and move between 2D and 3D.

Frequently asked questions

Can I place findings on both drawings and the 3D model?
Yes. Drop a snag onto a PDF floor plan, or place it directly in the federated 3D model. It's the same finding either way, put wherever it's easiest to point at the issue.
Will a pin stay in the right place?
Each pin stores its exact coordinates and stays anchored to that location as you switch storeys, cut sections, or move between 2D and 3D, so anyone can return to the precise spot later.
What does a snag record besides its location?
Alongside its position, every snag keeps its evidence photos, severity, and the relevant Bbl reference, so the full context of the issue travels with the pin.
