Measured Building Surveys by Subscan are highly accurate surveys carried out before, during and/or after construction projects. This type of survey is used for verification and record purposes, area calculation and to identify any variations from original plans.
At Subscan we use the latest technologies such as 3D laser scanners alongside traditional methods to bring the real-world building into the virtual environment through our measured surveys services. We have a dedicated team of inhouse specialists who complete comprehensive surveys with speed and accuracy across the UK.
Subscan UDS use Trimble SX10 3D Laser Scanning Total Stations to carry out each building survey. The drawing is then refined and detailed within survey software to produce the final plan. This data provides an essential 3D resource whether for refurbishments, alterations or record purposes.
A typical survey would show all structural features including walls, windows, doors, beam, floor and ceiling heights. Onto this can then be added fixtures and fittings such as sanitary-ware, electric points, light switches and fittings, radiators and furniture.
Each element of the property can be surveyed independently or as part of a fully connected coordinated survey which will reference the floor plans, elevations, topographical surveys and underground investigation to a common grid and level datum.
Measured building surveys are fast becoming the industry norm for precision surveying in high precision and high value technical environments. As one of the first companies to adopt measured building survey, Subscan are one of the most experienced drainage specialists in the UK.
