ENGINEERING SURVEYS

Engineering Surveys for Construction and Infrastructure Projects

LandPlan delivers precise and dependable engineering surveys to support every stage of infrastructure development - from feasibility and design to construction and final certification. 

Our team of registered land surveyors works closely with engineers, architects, and contractors to ensure that survey control, setting-out, and as-built verification are done with the highest level of accuracy and efficiency.

Whether you're building roads, bridges, utilities, or high-rise structures, our engineering surveys are designed to reduce risk, improve alignment, and ensure construction follows exact design specifications.

Our Engineering Survey Services Include:

• Control and Benchmark Surveys
  Establishment of survey control networks and vertical benchmarks for use throughout the construction process. All control is referenced to the national coordinate system (Hartebeesthoek94) or local project datum.

• Construction Setting-Out
  Accurate setting-out of roads, buildings, services, and structural elements from engineering plans and design coordinates. We ensure layout positions meet tolerance requirements and are clearly marked on-site for contractors.

• Ongoing Construction Surveys
  Periodic site surveys and verifications during construction to check alignment, levels, clearances, and compliance with design drawings — supporting effective quality control and project tracking.

• As-Built Surveys and Certification
  Post-construction as-built surveys that document the final position, alignment, and levels of completed works. We provide CAD plans, reports, and digital models for municipal approval and engineering sign-off.

• Building Plans and Structural Surveys
  Detailed surveys of existing buildings and structures to inform renovations, extensions, or compliance checks. Floor plans, elevations, and cross-sections are generated based on real-world data.
  
  

What is an Engineering Survey?

An engineering survey provides precise spatial data required to design, build, and verify physical infrastructure. These surveys help ensure that construction is executed accurately, in line with approved plans and regulatory standards.

Typical engineering survey applications include:

• Road and civil infrastructure layout

• Stormwater and sewer line positioning

• Building foundation and column set-out

• Bulk earthworks measurement and level control

• Bridge and culvert geometry surveys

• Structural monitoring and deformation tracking
