MEASURED BUILDING SURVEYS FOR COMMERCIAL PROPERTY
Measured Building Surveys for Commercial Property provide accurate existing plans, elevations, sections and digital data for offices, retail, hospitality, industrial and mixed-use assets. AMS Surveys supports owners, occupiers, developers, architects and asset managers who need reliable information for acquisition, fit-out, refurbishment, leasing or redevelopment. Survey scope and deliverables are tailored to the decision being made so clients do not pay for unnecessary data.
LASER SCAN SURVEYS WHAT YOU GET
Our Measured Building Surveys can include:
-
Floor plans and layout drawings
-
External and internal elevations
-
Cross sections

TYPICAL PROJECTS AND APPLICATIONS
Measured Building Surveys for Commercial Property are commonly commissioned for projects such as:
Office and workplace refurbishment
Retail and hospitality fit-out
Warehouse and industrial conversion
Commercial acquisition and redevelopment
Landlord and tenant alteration projects
Asset management and multi-site property records
For a broader existing-building package, see Measured Building Surveys. Related AMS Surveys services can be coordinated where the project also requires design, condition or heritage input.

COMMON OUTPUTS PROVIDED
Depending on the agreed scope, AMS Surveys can provide:
CAD floor plans, elevations and sections
Area measurement and space schedules where agreed
Point cloud and 3D laser scan data
Revit or BIM existing-condition models
Roof and reflected ceiling plans where required
Consistent drawing standards for portfolio or estate instructions

A: Yes, our measured surveys are commonly commissioned for offices, retail units, industrial buildings and mixed-use developments.

ABOUT MEASURED BUILDING SURVEYS FOR COMMERCIAL PROPERTY
Commercial properties often need more than a basic floor plan. A refurbishment team may require ceiling information and structural grids, an asset manager may need repeatable plans across many sites, while a developer may need a complete CAD or BIM base for change of use. AMS Surveys defines the survey around that requirement and can also combine the measured work with Commercial Building Surveys, Schedules of Condition, defect investigations and project management. This provides a useful one-roof option where the geometry and condition of the building both matter.
