By

What Is ZetaBIM?

Auto-place railing balusters in Revit using point cloud scans. ZetaBIM helps you model faster without manual measuring. Perfect for scan-to-BIM projects.

🚀 New Feature: Auto-Place Railing Balusters from Point Cloud

With this new feature in ZetaBIM, you can now:

  • Visually detect baluster locations directly from point cloud in Revit
  • Click on the scanned point, and the plugin automatically places a baluster at that exact location

🛠️ No need to:

  • Manually measure segment lengths
  • Calculate spacing
  • Place and align balusters by hand

🎯 Key Benefits:

  • 🕒 Save time: model faster without measuring or editing every baluster
  • 🎯 High accuracy: align balusters precisely to scanned reality
  • 🧩 Compatible with all railing types: works with simple and complex railing systems
  • 👁️‍🗨️ WYSIWYG workflow: what you see (in the point cloud) is what you get

🔎 Why It Matters in Revit Projects

If you’re working on:

  • 🏢 As-built modeling from laser scans
  • 🛠️ Renovation or retrofit projects
  • 🧱 Scan-to-BIM workflows

…this feature is a game-changer. You can build directly from reality—fast and accurate, with minimal effort.
