recibiendo de

Spanish to English Tech/Engineering construction project obra civil
La cantidad inmensa de planos recibidos en obra, más de mil, nos ha obligado a tener técnicos que analizasen cada uno de ellos, recibiendo de los planos validos para construir una media de tres modificaciones, llegando en alguna ocasión hasta siete versiones

come across/ found

Not a nice sentence at all. I would start a new sentence with recibiendo de, along the lines of:

we have come across/found an average of three modifications in the valid plans

or

The plans valid for construction show/contain an avergae of...

Anyway. To sum up, I think the recibir refers to the modifications, in the sense of ***gleaned/gathered/got*** from the plans (and I suppose those three are another 3 options, although I don't like them personally) and that of the 1,000 plans received for the project, not all of them are valid.

PD:
\"Obtaining from\"---por ejemplo: \"obtaining \" valid reasons--substantiation, validation \"from\" the the plans..etc.

Suerte!!
