Measured Drawings: This is a field of civil engineering surveying, which involves many methods of surveying. The basic essence of this aspect of surveying is to create as built floor plans, as built elevations, accurate area statements, existing internal furniture layout plans, existing MEP layout plans etc.., These plans are especially required even after a meticulous execution of a project as per the design drawings, since there is always a possibility of deviation from the planned design due to various external factors.
An As-Built
drawing is intended to document the current dimensions and layout of the
building and evaluate the existing conditions. The As-built plans/measured
drawings are instrumental in assessing the Built-up areas, which need to be
stated in all commercial literature and legal instruments.
An As-Built drawing is imperative for renovations or improvement
projects & a constructed structure almost never corresponds exactly to the
original design drawings and this critical distinction can derail the
architect’s intentions. As-built plans also supports local municipalities for
taxation assessments. State of the Art equipment enables Precision surveys to
map the current dimensions with precision.
Measured
drawings are detailed architectural or engineering drawings that are created by
taking precise measurements of a building or structure. These drawings are used
to document the existing condition of a building, to aid in the design and
construction process, and to provide a record of the building for historical or
legal purposes.
The process
of creating measured drawings begins with a survey of the building. The
surveyor will take precise measurements of the building's dimensions, including
the length, width, and height of the structure, as well as the location of
doors, windows, and other architectural elements. These measurements are then
used to create a detailed floor plan, elevations, and sections of the building.
Measured
drawings are typically created using AutoCAD or other architectural software
programs. These programs allow the surveyor to input the measurements and
create a detailed digital model of the building. The model can then be used to
create accurate and detailed 2D drawings, such as floor plans, elevations, and
sections.
Measured
drawings are an important tool for architects, engineers, and builders. They
provide a detailed and accurate representation of a building's existing
condition, which can be used to inform the design and construction process.
They can also be used to create as-built drawings, which provide a record of
the building's condition at the time of construction.
Measured
drawings are also useful for historical or legal purposes. They can be used to
document the condition of a building for historical records or to provide
evidence of the building's condition in legal disputes. They can also be used
to create accurate and detailed restoration or renovation plans.
In
conclusion, measured drawings are a vital tool for architects, engineers, and
builders. They provide a detailed and accurate representation of a building's
existing condition, which can be used to inform the design and construction
process. They can also be used for historical or legal purposes, making them an
important part of any building project.
