MEASURED SURVEYS FOR SCHOOLS, COLLEGES AND UNIVERSITIES
Measured Surveys for Schools, Colleges and Universities create accurate building and estate information for refurbishment, accessibility, space planning, maintenance and capital works. AMS Surveys can survey individual buildings or larger education estates using 3D laser scanning and coordinated measured survey methods, with CAD, point cloud and Revit outputs aligned to the project team's requirements and operational constraints.
LASER SCAN SURVEYS WHAT YOU GET
Our Measured Building Surveys can include:
-
Floor plans and layout drawings
-
External and internal elevations
-
Cross sections
-
Roof plans
-
Reflected ceiling plans
-
CAD drawings (DWG format)
-
Point cloud data
-
3D BIM models, including Revit outputs where required
All outputs are tailored to your project requirements, whether for planning, design, refurbishment or commercial use.
TYPICAL PROJECTS AND APPLICATIONS
Measured Surveys for Schools, Colleges and Universities are commonly commissioned for projects such as:
School refurbishment and condition-led improvement programmes
College and university estate upgrades
Accessibility and circulation projects
Decarbonisation and retrofit programmes
Roof, façade and internal reconfiguration schemes
Multi-building estates requiring a consistent digital drawing standard
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:
Existing floor plans, elevations and sections
Point cloud data for complex buildings
Revit or BIM models where required
Roof and reflected ceiling plans
Area schedules and room information where agreed
Consistent CAD outputs across multiple buildings or phases

HOW IT WORKS
Our process is designed to be efficient and coordinated with your wider project team.
-
Initial enquiry
Tell us the property address, building type and what outputs you need. -
Scope and quotation
We confirm the survey scope, deliverables, access requirements and fee. -
Site survey
We attend the site and capture the required measurement data using the appropriate survey methods. -
Drawing production and delivery
We process the information and issue your drawing package in the agreed format.
RELATED GEOMATICS SERVICES

MEASURED BUILDING SURVEY FAQs
Q: What is a measured building survey?
A: A measured building survey provides accurate drawings of an existing property, supporting planning, refurbishment, retrofit and redevelopment work.
Q: Do you work with heritage and listed buildings?
A: Yes, we regularly survey historic and heritage assets, producing elevations and sections suitable for conservation-led projects.
Q: What formats do you provide?
A: Survey drawings are typically issued as PDF and CAD-ready files, tailored to the design team’s requirements.
Q: Is this suitable for commercial buildings?
A: Yes, our measured surveys are commonly commissioned for offices, retail units, industrial buildings and mixed-use developments.

ABOUT MEASURED SURVEYS FOR SCHOOLS, COLLEGES AND UNIVERSITIES
Education buildings are often occupied, altered over many decades and supported by incomplete record information. Survey work therefore needs careful planning around access, safeguarding, teaching schedules and building operations. Laser scanning can reduce time in individual spaces while retaining a dense record for later processing. AMS Surveys also works across commercial condition surveying, roof inspections, heritage and project management, which is useful for estates containing a mixture of modern, traditional and listed buildings.
