Our planning and project management department see to it that we have all the required permits needed to be compliant with all industry requirements.

A measured survey serves as a foundation and necessity for the design, construction and planning process. It is usually required for the redevelopment or renovation of a property, the planning applications process and building maintenance.

Recording precise and accurate data is crucial when planning an architectural project or construction site. Investing in a measured building survey service will accurately capture all measurements, structural features and spatial data in the most reliable way and eliminate any risk of error. With advanced 3D laser scanning technology, you are guaranteed to receive detailed results in your chosen format and the required level of detail.

The cost of a measured survey is determined by many factors. Firstly, we will analyse the scale, size and complexity of the project and determine the conditions and accessibility of the site. We will then determine what deliverables you require – such as a 3D Point Cloud, 2D CAD or 3D model – and then we determine the required level of detail you need for your deliverables. Once we have this information we can then provide an accurate price for your project.

SIAD Studio provide the following services to all our clients: Measured Building Surveys Topographical and Land Surveys Drone Surveys Roof Surveys Heritage Surveys

We are equally at home working on a small private project or a national infrastructure scheme. We have a very diverse client base, ranging from architects, consulting engineers, planners, local authorities, multi nationals and private clients.

SIAD Studio’s measured survey and 3D laser scanning services can produce the following detailed deliverables: Complete 3D Point Cloud As-built 2D CAD Drawings: This includes floor, roof and site plans, plus external and internal elevations and cross-sections 3D Models: BIM, Revit 3D Visualisations: Virtual Reality walkthroughs and imagery

A measured survey is the starting point for any BIM model. A true to scale “existing model” is captured by the surveyor on site, which is then used by the design team to create a 3D Building Model.

A measured survey is a dimensionally accurate representation of a site, building or structure that is captured using 3D laser scanning technology. The measured survey captures an accurate depiction of a building or project and showcases the information, features and measurements within a 3D point cloud, as built 2D drawings or 3D BIM model.

Revit is a popular software that can be used as part of the BIM process to create 3D Building Models. A Revit file is made up of components that have measurable attributes. It should be noted that Revit is not the only modelling software available for use within BIM but it is the primary software used by SIAD Studio for Building Modelling.

1. Information and data are captured with high accuracy due to the reliability of 3D laser scanning technology. 2. You will receive detailed deliverables, including 3D point cloud, as-built 2D drawings, 3D models and more. 3. You are guaranteed to receive detailed results in your required level of detail and choice of format. 4. It is a non-intrusive application, ideal for fragile sites within the heritage landscape.

At SIAD Studio our normal working hours are Monday to Friday from 8 am to 5 pm, but we can offer special working hours such as weekends and evenings, depending on the project requirements. SIAD Studio can provides flexible hours to ensure your business is not interrupted. Contact us today to find out how we could provide 3D laser scanning and measured survey services to fit your scheduling needs.

Main advantages that Point Cloud provide: 1. Save time and money – Site visits can now be reduced to the minimum; thanks to the possibility of virtual tours and 360 Trueview imagery. 2. Accuracy – The accuracy of all measurements is +/- 5mm 3. No human error – Our 3D Laser scanner captures all measurements in 360 by 300 degrees at a range of 130 metres, leaving no chance for human error. 4. Extraction of any measurements – Any measurements, areas or even angles can be extracted from the Point Cloud in several clicks. You can even extract measurements directly from 360 images as they are linked directly to the Point Cloud.

SIAD Studio is based in Oxfordshire, primarily serving the South of England, but we also deliver our services across the whole of the UK. No project is too far for us.

Our 3D laser scanning and measured surveys can take anything from a few hours to weeks or months, depending on the size of your project and the deliverables you require. Our surveyors will provide you with a realistic timeframe and a swift turnaround when delivering your as-built 2D drawings and 3D models.

BIM (Building Information Modelling) is a process whereby construction industry professionals collaborate in a team environment on a range of data that comes together in a centralised digital space. This data base is accessible by and can be updated in real time by all with interests in the project. One of the key outputs of this process is the 3D Building Model, a digital asset for the project which is usually created using a measured survey as the start point. BIM extends to post project handover as a tool for planned and reactive maintenance and management.

SIAD Studio deliver high standard 3D laser survey services for different types of projects, such as: Heritage Sites Historical and Listed Buildings Commercial Properties, such as Offices and Retail Industrial Buildings, such as Warehouses and Factories Educational Establishments, such as Schools and Universities Residential Properties, such as Houses and Apartments Infrastructure, such as Bridges, Roads and Railways Allotments, Farmland and External Landscapes Engineering and Storage Facilities Healthcare Facilities and Hospitals
