Measured building surveys

 

Measured building surveys provide clients with detailed internal and external plans, sections and elevations of all aspects for a given building or structure.
With approximately 80% of our workload devoted to producing measured building surveys, our reputation for producing quality work has grown nationwide.
Read more on our Case Studies page.

Our personnel are very experienced in a range of large or small scale measured building surveys including historic buildings, grade 1 listed buildings, churches, museums, residential and retail units. in fact we have or could survey any type of building you can imagine.

We also have expertise in 3d whether basic "Rights of Light" or detailed 3d models. Laser scanning now compliments this and we can produce high definition point cloud models, please visit our laser scanning page for more information.

Floor plans

We are very experienced in measured building surveys and producing floor plans, projects can range from major historic buildings and complex retail units to basic letting area plans. Once horizontal and vertical control has been established, infill measurements are taken and plotted direct into Autocad. Please note that all our surveys are fully controlled.

  • Large or small scale
  • Fully controlled
  • RICS Guidelines
  • Fully detailed
  • Lease plans
  • English Heritage detailing
  • Ordnance Survey Datums
  • Sockets & services
  • Furniture layouts
  • BIM

Elevations

We specialise in all types of elevations ranging from basic "rights of light" type elevations to more detailed, high accuracy ones. Remote laser fixing of features is used to provide accurate levels and position for points across the facade.
Traditional remote survey techniques or high definition laser scanning.

  • Fully detailed
  • Matched to floor plans
  • Outline for Rights of Light
  • Incorporated within sections
  • Fine detailing for historic records
  • Street scenes
  • Ordnance Survey Datums
  • Laser scanning or traditional
  • Attention to detail

Sections

Sections are usually produced in conjunction with floor plans and elevations, but can be produced as a separate entity.
Elevational detail can easily be incorporated.
Fine detailing can be measured or scanned to enable exact replication of mouldings, fireplaces, cornices, dado rails etc.

  • Slice through building
  • Matched to floor plans
  • Elevation detail if required
  • Fine detailing for historic records
  • Site sections
  • Verticality
  • Produced from laser scanner or traditional means
  • Attention to detail
