Engineering Survey

Topographic Survey

Topographical Survey is that branch of surveying to determine the coguration of the earth’s surface and to locate natural and features on it. The result of a topographical survey is the production of a topographical plan that shows the topography and other features be it natural or articial features such as streams, lakes, buildings, and highways. The most distinctive characteristic of a topographic map is that the three-dimensional shape of the Earth’s surface is modelled by the use of contour lines.

A topographic survey is an important tool used by a variety of professionals. Engineers, Planners, Developers, Architects and Infrastructure Consultants requires topographic land surveys to start a construction project. A topographic land survey can inence the design and layout of a new development, as there may be complex underground infrastructures that supply power, water, and other utilities to residential subdivisions, and commercial areas.

SGS is able to provide detailed survey data for road construction, telecommunications, as well as civil constructions. This allows engineers to use information collected for the design and monitoring of construction. Our clients will receive reliable, accurate and complete ground survey and three dimensional digital terrain models from which to base engineering designs, from highways and railways to resorts, township developments, golf courses or entire industrial zones. Government agencies frequently use topographic land surveys for developing codes and regulations for construction projects as well as preparation for digging drainage ditches, and creating water run-off areas.

Demarcation Survey

Demarcation Surveys are surveys are used to identify and mark the boundary limits for land and property development projects. Demarcation is often applied before the construction process to ensure that the limits of the site situated on the piece of land is perfectly dened for construction work and the barrier is strategically situated along the perimeter.
Demarcation Survey is widely used by homeowners, landowners, and real estate developers. Civil construction industries require demarcation survey in the setting up of the construction-fence in ensuring that the site is safe and secure.

As-Built Survey

As-built surveys are conducted in the midst of and after the completion of a particular construction stage. This survey method is utilized to verify the dimensions and other spatial perimeters were constructed in compliance with the specications outlined by the engineer during the design process.

As construction progresses, minor changes may occur from the original development plan. Government agencies, engineers as well as general construction contractors utilize this survey method because as-built records are the final record which specifically documents any changes that modies the tangible portions of existing and completed structures.

As-built surveys provide information for architects, engineers, real estate developers, providing renovations for an existing structure, where most additions or modications will require the approval of Government agencies, authorities will also refer to as-built surveys. This survey also useful for utility and power companies in installations of new structures into older constructions.

Building And Infrastructure Set Out

A set-out survey is utilized to set out the exact position of a proposed building or infrastructure within the legal boundaries of a piece of land. Overall, a set-out survey involves transferring a building design onto the land itself so the builders can follow it during construction. During the process, key points are established and markers used to guide the building process and ensure accuracy. For large scale projects, such as high-rise buildings and developments, multiple set-out surveys may be needed as the construction progresses such as set out surveys for roads, carparks, sewerage, water, the actual building.
Onsite, our surveyors work closely with civil engineers, project and construction managers and supervisors to ensure that structures are built to design in terms of position, line, alignment and level. Building and infrastructure set out is needed for all construction work from individual houses to major commercial buildings, roads, bridges, tunnels, and extensions to existing buildings. Gridlines and building corners for residential or commercial buildings or extensions can be marked on site based on design specifications. This allows the construction to occur in the correct location as per the initial specified designs.

Precise Levelling Survey

Precise levelling is a particularly accurate method of differential levelling which uses highly accurate levels and with a more rigorous observing procedure than general engineering levelling. It strives to achieve high orders of accuracy such as 1 mm per 1 km traverse. The placement of calculated precise level points can even determine the effects of stress on a structure.
Is an eficient, cost effective and highly accurate method used to detect the smallest changes in elevation associated with any demolition or construction activity of any magnitude Precise levelling surveys provide data for high engineering structures, project developments, and monitoring works. This survey is useful for civil engineering, construction, architects, property and development, agriculture, oil and gas and utility companies.

Deformation Monitoring Survey

Deformation Monitoring Survey tracks and measures changes in the shape or size of objects under stress, important for understanding structural shifts and predicting maintenance needs. This method charts movements over time, providing visual data representations in various views for deeper analysis and alerting purposes.

Deformation Monitoring Surveys are applicable to consistently monitor ground, floods and buildings by civil and structural engineers. This technique can be applied to monitor a vast array of structures both man made, bridges, railway-lines, dams, embankments, infrastructure and natural features like cliff lines or landslide prone slopes.

This survey is useful for property and development, construction and engineering industries in making sure that they have the right information to protect their investment, mitigate risk and ensure the safety of their development projects.

Profile Survey

Profile surveys involve determining the elevations of a series of points at measured intervals along a line such as the centreline of a proposed ditch or road or the centreline of a natural feature such as a stream bed. This survey is often used prior to the development of a new project.

Profile elevations are taken on baseline stations to aid engineers in establishing a grade line to fit fild conditions. Profies should be taken by differential levelling circuits beginning and ending on the previously established benchmarks. Profies of grade line controlling features, such as crossroads, drainage, utility lines, irrigation works, railroads or other grade infiencing features should be taken far enough on either side of the centerline to clearly define the grade lines of those features.

Utility industries require profile surveys for projects including the relocation or construction of transmission lines and pipelines. Government agencies and transportation industries require profile surveys in establishing pedestrian pathways and route alignments.
