We can provide Floor plans or as built plans Fast CAD Drawings 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 / Measured Building Surveys.net can report on percentage variation between existing drawing and situation on the ground as well as any changes in the buildings layout.

Samsung Q1 ULTRA & Leica Disto D8 - Greater Accuracy
Survey Methodology

Surveys are conducted using a hand-held Laser Measure (Leica Disto A6 and the new Leica Disto D8 or Hilti PD38) coupled via ‘Bluetooth’ technology to a hand-held microcomputer (Samsung Q1 ULTRAViliv X70 EX or the latest HTC Flint XDA). 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. Significant improvements in survey quality are gained using this equipment when compared with traditional survey methods. Gone are the days where two men would hold a sagging tape measure from one end of the room to the other, that old method is history! There are NO more return visits to site due to blunt pencils and inaccurate paper documentation, NO guesswork, NO wrong data documentation NO sagging tape measures.
