Construction & Engineering Surveys

Topographic, Contour and Feature Surveys

Topographic surveys are required when planning or designing a development. Our service involves accurately modelling, documenting and producing a 3D CAD model of your land to provide a detailed base model for design work. We also provide accurate property boundary overlays on our surveys and can pinpoint the location of any underground service infrastructure, located by an accredited provider.

As Constructed Surveys

As-constructed (or as-built) surveys are often required on construction and engineering projects to meet contractual obligations and to document the built asset location. Our team are specialists in due diligence and high-precision surveys for a range of requirements, including road construction verification, sewer mains, service infrastructure, processing plants, general infrastructure location and building construction.

Civil Construction Surveys

Civil construction surveys are conducted to allow for design, accurate construction and documentation of a development project. We carry out surveys for design, infrastructure set-out surveys, and as-constructed surveys to document the built asset location, as well as help you meet any contractual obligations. Our team can undertake civil surveys of any size, and can also provide a fast turnaround for those sites where timeframes are critical.

Building and Structural Surveys

Building and structural surveys assist with the construction of buildings and infrastructure as well as verify and document what has been built. Our experienced team can perform any construction survey, including grid set-out, hold-down bolt, footing set-out, verticality checks and multi-storey surveys for any construction or engineering project with accuracy and efficiency.

Monitoring and Deformation Surveys

We specialise in monitoring and high-precision surveys for a variety of construction and engineering applications. We carry out monitoring surveys for a wide range of purposes, including monitoring buildings adjacent to excavations, road slippages, dam structures, bridges, tanks, processing plants and monitoring of infrastructure where movement may be suspected. These requirements may include monitoring of individual points, or surface deformation, using highly accurate equipment including 3D laser scanning.

Volume Surveys

Our team undertake surveys to determine stockpile or material volumes on a regular basis. As determining volume requires different techniques depending on the surface, we make sure to match the most appropriate, safest, accurate technique to each client’s unique requirements. We can also determine stockpile volumes on a regular basis for monthly and annual accounting purposes.

Transmission line surveys

Surveys required for transmission line design including feature and level surveys, LIDAR, existing overhead line surveys and underground service location surveys. Our surveyors work with the transmission pole erection contractors to set out the pole locations and required offsets and to set out no go zones, cultural heritage areas and permitted access track locations. Ferguson Perry Surveying provides a range of services for transmission line design and construction projects, including land tenure and transmission line rights investigations, cadastral surveys and preparation of transmission line easements, as well as subdivision processing from planning to survey for substations.

Infrastructure Corridor Surveys

Infrastructure corridor surveys are often required along open greenfield land before infrastructure can be designed. Our team provide full topographic information, including property boundary details and underground service infrastructure. We can also set out the location of infrastructure, assist with construction surveys of the asset as well as final as-constructed surveys and surveys along existing infrastructure corridors for road upgrade purposes.

Precision Engineering

Our team are specialists in due diligence and high-precision surveys for a range of requirements, including dimensional control surveys, measurement certification, precision monitoring surveys, industrial alignment surveys and surveys for fabrication. Our experienced staff pride themselves on providing highly precise results using cutting-edge technology and specialised software.

Our team of experienced surveyors have worked on a wide variety of construction and engineering projects for private, government and joint ventures across the Wimmera Mallee region.

You can trust our experience, expertise and local knowledge to deliver internationally certified, innovative solutions for your project.
