Old Clunch Barn

Project deliverables

• 2D AutoCAD drawings (2019 release) and a dxf file that the client used to build a ground level model in SketchUp.
• PDFs & Photographs.
• The client and was happy that the survey was carried out in a quick, professional and safe manor with minimal complications.

Survey method

• The survey was done using a combination of our survey instruments: GPS, a Total Station, and traditional tape and Disto methods. The measuring process was done over two short days on site.

Survey specifics

Measured floor plans

• To provide accurate and detailed 2D internal floor plans throughout the building. Survey control was adopted from the external topographic survey. Surveying various features including positions of all walls, doors, external/internal windows (including Cill & Head heights) floor to ceiling heights, floor levels, changes in level, stairs/step positions, timber beams, joists and trusses.
• 1:50 plots supplied.

Elevations

• All true elevations (showing wall plumbness) were surveyed, combining floorplan details with total station data. External faces featured items such as windows and door configurations, roof details and levels, structural opening sizes and appropriate levels, rainwater downpipes, gutters and vents etc.
• 1:50 plots supplied

Sections

• Two cross sections were provided through key areas of the building, highlighting details such as wall positions and plumbness, window openings, beam and truss heights, internal and external wall and roof profiles and floor levels.
• 1:50 plots supplied.

Topographic Survey

• To provide 2D & 3D topographic survey at a detail level of 1:200. Delivering a comprehensive topographic survey on Ordnance Survey grid and datum. Paying particular attention to the immediate area surrounding the barn and providing a thorough ground level model.
