Instant Floor Plans

Picture
When you need a measured building survey, a measured building surveyor or a full programme of surveys and floor plans, we can help you.. If time scales are tight, or clients time constraints are limited on site, we can work with you.

It doesn't matter how big or small your project is, from just one house plan of a few square metres up to tens of thousands of square metres or several house plans, we can meet your requirements. We have large experience of Measured Building Surveys, floor plans and elevational drawings, everything from private dwellings/homes, house plans and domestic premises, apartments and flats, to  supermarkets and shopping malls, churches and public buildings and have carried out Measured Survey programmes encompassing hundreds of properties,  so we can provide a schedule to suit you!

Floor Plans can be produced and required for lots of different reasons. Let us know why you require them and we will be able to provide you with an accurate quotation.


Picture
We carry out the Measured Building Surveys ourselves, wherever possible, however, because we work closely through our sister businesses with hundreds of surveyors Worldwide using the Sitemaster Building and Sitemaster Elevations software range 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.

This means we can actually carry out projects Worldwide using our contacts.

Measured Surveys - Floor Plans

Picture

We can provide Floor plans with varying levels of detailed work - from simple walls, columns, doors and window surveys, to a fully detailed data set including all 3D information including cill & head heights, stair riser and going details, door heights, ceiling heights, beam details, fitted furniture etc.. As part of our measured surveys, the surveyors can also pick up and highlight other information for example: any electrical and data points, sanitary fittings, incoming mains positions, plant, fire fighting and detection equipment, security equipment, signageand so on.


Measured Drawings Check


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

From your or your clients existing floor plans, 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 Surveys can report on percentage variation between existing drawing and situation on the ground as well as any changes in the buildings layout.

Topographical surveys

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 at all.


Survey Methodology

Picture


Surveys are conducted using a hand-held Laser Measure (Leica Disto D8 or Hilti PD38) coupled via ‘Bluetooth’ technology to a hand-held microcomputer (Samsung Q1 ULTRA or Viliv X70 EX). 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.


Picture
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):-

Typical Measured Building Survey Includes:-
