Architectural & Measured Surveying Services
Precision Surveying Solutions for Architects, Developers & Project Teams
Tri-Tech Surveys is a nationwide surveying and engineering company based in Yorkshire, providing precise architectural, land and measured building surveying services across the UK. Whether your project is residential, commercial, infrastructure, or heritage-focused, we deliver the accurate data you need to support architecture, planning and construction with confidence.
We combine modern surveying technologies with decades of industry experience to support architects, project managers, property developers, national construction firms and local stakeholders throughout the lifecycle of building projects.
Measured building surveys are at the core of what we do. These surveys capture internal and external building details using high-precision equipment, including 3D laser scanning and GNSS control systems. Measured surveys for architects provide detailed floor plans, elevations, sections, and point cloud data that enable accurate design, renovation or extension work. Our deliverables are supplied in formats compatible with your workflows, whether you work in Revit, AutoCAD, Archicad or other key design environments. With measured building surveys from Tri-Tech you get:
Precise floor plans and internal layouts
External elevations showing façade detail
Section drawings for vertical context
3D point cloud data ready for BIM or CAD workflows
Interactive virtual tour models
Topographical Surveys
Measured Building Surveys
3D Point Clouds & BIM Models
Utility Mapping
Utility mapping and site context surveys
Volumetric Analysis

Advanced Technology, Reliable Results
What is a measured building survey and why do architects need it?
A measured building survey captures the real-world dimensions and internal/external details of an existing structure. For architects, this information forms the basis of design, planning submissions, and seamless integration of new elements with existing buildings.
How does 3D laser scanning benefit architectural design?
Laser scanning gathers millions of data points to create a point cloud dataset that reflects actual conditions. This level of detail enables architects to model existing structures accurately, identify design constraints, and reduce uncertainty during planning approval and construction.
Do I need a survey before submitting planning permission?
Yes, Tri-Tech delivers survey data that is fully compatible with BIM workflows, helping architects and engineers collaborate with accurate, detailed models throughout design and project delivery.
Can Tri-Tech integrate survey data with BIM workflows?
In most architectural projects, accurate survey data is essential before planning submission. It ensures all site and building information is correctly represented in planning documents, minimising delays or requests for additional information.
