By utilising point cloud data captured during a single laser survey, a comprehensive measured building survey can be completed — delivering an accurate digital record of your building's geometry, layout and dimensions exactly as built.
Measured building surveys are specified across architecture, construction, property and facilities management where an accurate understanding of existing building conditions is essential. Clients use them for refurbishment design, planning applications, lease area calculations, dilapidations, heritage recording and building regulations compliance. These surveys provide a reliable dimensional foundation that tape measures, hand sketches and outdated drawings simply cannot deliver.
One of the key advantages of a laser-scanned measured building survey is the speed and completeness of data capture. Internal layouts, ceiling heights, wall thicknesses, window and door positions, column locations, floor levels and external facades are all recorded in a single visit — producing fully coordinated 2D CAD drawings and 3D models to any required level of detail, in any format, referenced to a consistent survey datum throughout.
Every Building Type, Every Sector
Measured building surveys are completed across all building types — from city centre commercial offices and retail units to historic listed buildings, healthcare facilities, educational campuses and industrial premises — with the same level of accuracy and detail regardless of size or complexity.
