Measured Building Survey | Residential | UK

Project Scope

Our team was commissioned to undertake a comprehensive measured building survey for a residential property requiring renovation by the client/owner. The survey was designed to provide accurate and reliable data to support the design and renovation process.

Equipment Used

  • Laser Scanner RTC360
  • Leica GNSS Receiver GS14
  • Leica Total Station TS16

Duration

  • Site time: 3 days
  • Modelling time: 45 days

1. Measured Building Survey

The primary objective was to produce highly accurate floor plans that incorporated all visible beams and structural elements. This level of detail ensured the design team could fully understand and address existing structural components during the renovation phase. Every observable structural feature was captured so the resulting drawings and model accurately reflected the building’s existing conditions.

2. Facade and Surrounding Topography

The facade was of particular importance to the client due to its intricate architectural detailing, which required careful and precise documentation. Additionally, detailed topographical information was captured for the rear road and surrounding areas. This was essential to identify level changes and height differences that could potentially cause design or construction challenges in the future.

3. Loft and Under space Areas

The loft and under-space areas were surveyed in detail, as these spaces were a key focus of the proposed renovations. Accurate measurements and documentation were essential to support informed design decisions for these areas.
