An architectural survey is a method that takes all land aspects including soil, past and present buildings and roads, and even archaeological data into account when planning a new development. In many ways it is similar to an engineering survey, which is important and collects, analyzes and manages infrastructure. These surveys provide background and history of that specific area in regard to population and activity over many years. By understanding past events, developers and architects can plan projects accordingly so they may adapt to that area's needs and culture. Architectural surveying is incredibly important. It can help ensure structural integrity depending on earth conditions as well as community and employment involvement depending on the building's purpose.
Accurate field information is an important part of the design and construction process. An architectural survey can give architects, engineers, developers, and contractors a reliable representation of existing site conditions before design or construction begins.
For renovation and redevelopment projects, documenting existing conditions before construction can be especially important because existing buildings and site features may differ from older drawings or available records.
Architectural surveying provides architects, engineers, developers, contractors, and property owners with accurate information about existing site and building conditions. The information collected during an architectural survey can be used to support planning, design, renovation, additions, alterations, and new construction.
Depending on the requirements of the project, architectural surveying may document existing buildings, site features, elevations, structures, property improvements, access areas, and other physical conditions that could affect the design or construction process. A detailed architectural survey can help project teams work from reliable field measurements instead of relying on outdated plans, estimates, or assumptions about existing conditions.
An existing conditions survey is an important part of many architectural and construction projects. When an existing building is being renovated, expanded, or modified, accurate information about the current structure and surrounding site can help architects and engineers develop their plans.
Architectural surveying can document existing conditions such as:
Property improvements that may affect proposed construction
The scope of an architectural survey is determined by the requirements of the project. Arek Surveying works with clients to identify the information needed and provide surveying services appropriate for the property and proposed work.
Architectural surveys are used hand-in-hand with topographical survey. Topographical surveying is where most building plans begin, as they map out the weak spots on a development. The architectural survey is then used as a supplement and examines land components, such as roads, curbs and fences. The area's natural aspects, such as tress, bushes and soil, are also examined and taken into consideration. All of this helps when planning to build on a piece of land.
The data gathered in during architectural surveying will assist construction workers with a variety of areas and concerns, such as:
If a land plot has not been used recently or was abandoned, a topographical survey will show how the land has changed and how it could change over time. Thorough calculations are made and then inspected to ensure the most accurate measurements. This data is typically used by builders and developers. However, this data is also for many other professionals including architects, engineers and geologists. Municipal and state governments also use topographical surveys to create building and zoning codes. And an architectural survey is used as a supplement to the topographical survey to help with the construction of any buildings.
