The interaction between laser beams and backscattering object surfaces lies at the fundamental working principle of any Terrestrial Laser Scanning (TLS) system. Optical properties of surfaces such as concrete, metals, wood, etc., which are commonly encountered in structural health monitoring of buildings and structures, constitute an important category of systematic and random TLS errors. This paper presents an approach for considering the random errors caused by object surfaces. Two surface properties are considered: roughness and reflectance. The effects on TLS measurements are modeled stepwise in form of a so-called synthetic variance-covariance matrix (SVCM) based on the elementary error theory. A line of work is continued for the TLS stochastic model by introducing a new approach for determining variances and covariances in the SVCM. Real measurements of cast stone façade elements of a tall building are used to validate this approach and show that the quality of the estimation can be improved with the appropriate SVCM.
