Measured Building Surveys

We measure existing building geometry and prepare coordinated survey information for design, refurbishment and property workflows.

Service overview

Existing building information your design team can use

We measure the commissioned building areas and record the geometry required by the project brief.

Depending on access and required detail, outputs are prepared as coordinated plans, selected elevations and agreed CAD survey information for the receiving design workflow.

Building geometryMeasured existing dimensions and geometry across the commissioned areas.
Plans & elevationsCoordinated plans and selected elevations where included in the survey brief.
CAD survey informationSurvey data prepared for the agreed design, refurbishment or property workflow.

Workflow

How we deliver it

We plan the sequence around the project brief, programme and required deliverables.

01

Define drawings

Agree the required plans, elevations, areas and level of detail.

02

Review access

Confirm survey access and any limitations relevant to the required measurements.

03

Establish survey basis

Set the required coordinate or local drawing framework.

04

Measure

Capture the agreed building geometry.

05

Draft & check

Prepare CAD outputs and review internal consistency.

06

Issue

Deliver the required drawings and editable data.

Questions

Measured Building Surveys FAQ

What can a measured building survey include?

Depending on the brief, it can include selected floor plans, external elevations, building outlines, openings, levels and other measured geometry.

Can a measured building survey be combined with a topographical survey?

Yes. For redevelopment projects the building can be related to surrounding levels, boundaries, roads, access and other site features within one coordinated survey framework.
