This hydraulic stair platform had no readily available drawing documentation, so any repair or replacement part required outsourcing to external vendors, a costly and slow dependency for aviation maintenance operations.

Reverse-engineered the platform into a complete 3D CAD assembly and 2D manufacturing drawings, enabling in-house fabrication and repair.

• Extracted dimensional data via on-site hand metrology (vernier calipers, tape measures) directly from the physical structure.
• Translated raw field measurements into a complete 3D assembly using Autodesk Inventor, accurately reconstructing the original design intent despite physical wear and complex joint geometries.
