Abstract

An example computing system is configured to (i) present a three-dimensional (3D) visualization of a 3D model of a construction project; (ii) while presenting the 3D visualization of the 3D model of the construction project, present (a) a sectioning plane that defines a view of the 3D visualization of the 3D model of the construction project and (b) a sectioning control tool comprising an idealized 3D model, the sectioning control tool configured to set a location of the sectioning plane; (iii) receive user input indicating an interaction with the idealized 3D model; and (iv) based on the user input, adjust the location of the sectioning plane relative to the 3D visualization model of the 3D model of the construction project and thereby adjust the view of the 3D visualization of the 3D model of the construction project.
