Measured Building Surveys

Using a variety of techniques, buildings can be surveyed for basic floor and elevation layouts for planning, fit-out purposes and redevelopment, through to 3d fly-through computer models for visualisations of future design proposals.

3d Laser Scanning

Laser scanning technology offers the ultimate method of recording an entire structure or quantifying specific details within that structure. Laser scanning is now our first method of choice for collecting structure details.

3D CAD Modelling & Visualisation

Using the latest technology to capture site details and using the most innovative software and modelling methods, Survey Operations have a dedicated team of experienced CAD personnel to create 3D models of any type or size of structure.

BIM Surveys

Created by the Government for the Digital Built Britain Strategy, BIM involves the use of digital methods to collaboratively manage information and data across the entire life of built environment assets. BIM uses 3D models with attached data and information to connect and share information efficiently across the supply chain.

Building Survey FAQ’s

What are Building Surveys?

Building surveys involve a thorough inspection and assessment of a property’s condition, structure, and features. They identify defects, necessary repairs, and provide detailed information for property owners, buyers, and developers.

What are Measured Building Surveys?

Measured building surveys provide precise measurements and detailed representations of a building’s structure, including floor plans, elevations, and sections. They are essential for renovation, refurbishment, and space planning.

What is 3D Laser Scanning in Surveying?

3D laser scanning is a technology that captures high-resolution, three-dimensional data of structures and environments. It produces accurate point clouds, which can be used to create detailed models and visualisations for analysis and planning.

How is BIM Used in Surveying?

Building Information Modelling (BIM) integrates detailed building data into a digital model, facilitating collaboration among stakeholders. In surveying, BIM aids in accurate data collection, design coordination, and lifecycle management of building projects.
