Our skilled technicians create accurate 3D models of a building or structure that can be used as part of the Building Information Modelling (BIM) process or as a standalone project. We exclusively survey all our modelling projects using 3D data capture technologies from standard Total Stations through to the latest high-level laser scanners. From the data, our experienced modelling team use software such as AutoCAD and Revit to create dimensionally accurate 3D models detailing the outline and detailed features of a space, building or structure.
Tube Station, London – Our team surveyed a disused London Underground Station for refurbishment purposes. All data was captured using a laser scanner, georeferenced to OS coordinates and delivered as an LOD3 Revit model.
National Grid Brinsworth Substation, Rotherham – A highly detailed 3D Revit model was produced by our team from scan data collected on site. All MEP services were included within the model with measurements taken above false ceilings to accurately capture the roof voids. The final Revit model enabled our client to prepare their refurbishment design.
Courthouse, Peterborough – We surveyed the exterior of the building with a view to creating a 3D Revit model in LOD3 specification from the point cloud data. Both terrestrial laser scanner and drone technology was deployed to produce the point cloud and ensure a full coverage of the building. All data was georeferenced and linked to site control.
The Strand, London – Our surveyors conducted a topographical survey of a section of The Strand, close to Trafalgar Square in London. Our technicians created a fully detailed 3D model in Revit from the data, which our client used to assist in their design proposals for the area.
Abbey Road, Nuneaton – The area was part of a major regeneration scheme and we carried out a detailed topographical survey of the site, covering more than 3 hectares, consisting of public roads, footways, car parks and private land. The survey data was supplied both as an AutoCAD file and 3D Revit model to meet our client’s needs.
Premier Surveys have delivered numerous multidisciplinary survey projects at HM Prisons and probation centres throughout the UK on behalf of the Ministry of Justice. Deliverables included LOD3/LOD4 Revit models of all internal and external areas, topographical and underground utilities surveys and fully registered point clouds with RGB values. HMP Birmingham is the largest corrections facility our team has surveyed, with buildings modelled in Revit totalling close to 55,000m². Given the sensitive nature of these live sites, our surveyors underwent rigorous security vetting, including Counter Terrorism Check (CTC) and Security Check (SC) clearance. Close coordination with prison escorts was essential, ensuring smooth operations and safe, efficient delivery.
Pavillion House, Scarborough – We carried out a measured building survey of this 6,000m² office building on behalf of Scarborough Town Council. Vacant for several years, the property required accurate plans to support a planning application for change of use. Our team delivered a fully detailed LOD3 Revit model of all floors, including the roof.
Orwell House, London – This central London office space covers a total area of 3,600m² extending over eight floors. We produced a detailed 3D Revit model with external areas at LOD3.5, showing all finishing materials, and internal areas at LOD3, including wall, floor, and roof layers thicknesses. Following post-strip works we re-visited the site. The model was then updated to incorporate exposed structural details and steelwork, giving the client a comprehensive and accurate dataset to support their redevelopment plans.
Hyndburn Academy, Blackburn – The school’s redevelopment plan included the refurbishment of selected classrooms, the relocation of facilities, the over-cladding or re- cladding of external façades and the construction of new extension areas. Our team surveyed the requested buildings totalling an area of 7,000m² and delivered a detailed LOD3 Revit model.
The Piggott School, Reading – A detailed LOD3 Revit model was created by our in-house technicians to support our architect client in preparing comprehensive design proposals. Ceiling tiles were also lifted in key locations, allowing hidden services and structural details above suspended ceilings to be captured accurately.
Residential Property, Leeds – Our architect client briefed us to produce a highly detailed Revit model of a residential property in Leeds. The property featured decorative wooden trim along the roof edges, terracotta roof cresting and other decorative features, all of which were accurately modelled to assist in our client’s design proposals.
Residential Property, Brighton – The property, extending over three floors, had a total area of approximately 200m². Our technicians produced an LOD3 Revit model from scan data along with 2D plans extracted from the 3D model, enabling our client to prepare refurbishment designs.
Our team delivered a multidiscipline survey project at Bristol Zoo to assist our client in their plans to move the zoo and redevelop the area. From the data we created a series of 3D Revit models of the buildings on site and the surrounding topography.
We created a detailed LOD3 Revit model of this 600m² building in Wrexham using laser scanning technology. The model also incorporated a topographical survey of the surrounding 5,500m² grounds, providing a complete dataset for design and planning.
For this project we delivered a detailed LOD3 Revit model of the chapel, incorporating topographical data of the surrounding area. This formed part of a broader package including 2D floor plans, elevations and underground utilities survey.
Our in-house technicians created this detailed LOD3 Revit model of the 700m² building using geo-referenced scan data collected by terrestrial laser scanning. The final model supported architects and their team with their design proposals.
