    Structural Building Fabric Surveys

    Using various techniques, we can investigate the form, spatial distribution and condition of existing structural elements. These works are frequently undertaken alongside ground investigations at the site. Our ability to offer both services in-house offers potential economic benefits to our clients. The findings are usually required to support demolition, pre-purchase diligence, remedial works or redevelopment.

    FabricSurveys investigate the existing construction of a building or structure providing information on its form, construction, condition and lifespan. The findings are usually required to support demolition, pre-purchase diligence, legislation, insurance risks, fire risk, remedial works or redevelopment.

    Renovating and re-purposing structures provides a sustainable and cost-effective alternative to demolition and new construction. Our dedicated team of experts, working nationwide, support owners, investors, structural engineers, architects and other stakeholders, de-risking sites.

    With extensive experience, on projects varying from vacant warehouses, domestic properties, occupied commercial offices, river walls to Grade I Listed buildings, our FabricSurveys Team continue to explore innovative techniques to investigate structures with minimal impact on site operation.

    These works are frequently undertaken alongside ground investigations. Our ability to offer both services in-house offers potential economic benefits to our clients.

    We are always researching new investigation approaches to best meet our Clients’ needs. Consequently, we are confident we can provide competitive proposals to address any structural fabric investigation requirement.
