MAT & academy Measured Surveys
If you can't measure it, you can't improve it
Measured surveys are a precise representation of a building, inside and out, showing the position and dimensions of all key structural elements and architectural features.
A measured survey allows you to think strategically, to leverage your current resources and plan for future capacity and maintenance needs. It also acts as the foundation over which other surveys and assessments are overlaid, such as:
Condition survey reports
Energy efficiency assessments
Space utilisation plans
Access and security assessments
ICT and electrical plans
Whether you’re applying for a Condition Improvement Fund (CIF) grant, planning an extension to a building or complying with fire regulations by displaying accurate floor plans beside alarm panels, a measured survey should be your start point.
Following criteria set by RICS (Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors), our team of qualified and experienced chartered building surveyors will work systematically around your buildings, taking measurements to produce accurate and scaled 2-dimensional floor plans, elevations (external views of each face) and sections (cross sections through the building), or a 3-D CAD model.
For more information on our measured surveys and how we can support your academy or MAT, please call 0116 5070130or email enquire@s2e.org.uk.
