About our Measured Building Surveys

If you need a measured building survey or even several measured building
surveys or any floor plans you have come to the right place. If time is of the essence, or clients time constraints are
limited on site, we can accomodate you.

Whether your survey project is large or small, we can accommodate your requirements. We have vast experience of measured
surveys, everything from apartment blocks, and flats, to churches, embassies, supermarkets and shopping malls and have
carried out measured survey programmes encompassing hundreds of properties. A schedule can be drawn up to suit you!

We carry out the Measured Building Surveys (floor plans) ourselves 'in house', however, because we deal day in day out with hundreds of
surveyors Worldwide using the Sitemaster Building range of software we have built up a large network of surveyors who can
be called on to help us out if we are unable to do the work ourselves due to current workloads.

We are able to carry out surveys anywhere in the UK, most parts of Western Europe, most of Eastern Europe, the USA and
Canada and Australia. We pride ourselves on our excellent reputation for quality, customer service and value for money.

Measured Surveys - Floor Plans

We can provide Floor plans with varying levels of detail - from simple walls, columns, doors and window surveys, to a fully
detailed data set including all 3D information (sill & head heights, stair riser and going details, door heights, ceiling heights,
beam details etc.). As part of our measured surveys, the surveyors can also pick up and highlight other information such as
any electrical and data points, sanitary fittings, incoming mains positions, plant, fire fighting and detection equipment,
security equipment and signage.

Measured Drawings Check

Many times, plans exist but their accuracy is in doubt or change management has been poor, we can carry out a check survey,
this can be a very cost effective way to bring the existing plans up to date.

From yours or your clients existing drawings, we are able to compare distances on the drawing with dimensions taken on site
and produce a report indicating where any inaccuracies lie. Mobile CAD Surveying can report on percentage variation between
existing drawing and situation on the ground as well as any changes in the buildings layout.

A good CAD drawing, deriving from a good survey, will be put to a host of other uses and as such, will become a valuable
commodity that pays for itself in no time.

Survey Methodology

Surveys are conducted using a hand-held Laser Measure (Leica Disto A6, Leica Disto D8 or Hilti PD38) coupled via ‘Bluetooth’ technology to
a hand-held microcomputer (Samsung Q1 ULTRA). This approach, which produces the CAD drawing during the survey
process, allows us to establish and accurately check all building dimensions while on site. Significant improvements in
survey quality are gained using this equipment when compared with traditional survey methods.
A precision of ± 5mm over 100 metres is achievable with this equipment - giving a normal working accuracy of ± 25mm
between any two points after building tolerances have been taken into account.

Our Measured Building Surveys typically include the following elements (but can include anything the customer requires):-
