Having previously delivered a series of detailed elevations of Stoke Station using the very latest in photo modeling technology, City Surveys were delighted to be asked to provide yet more surveying services at Armathwaite Station in Cumbria. Whilst this was only a relatively small project it further cements and builds upon the very positive relationship we have with White Young Green.

One more job for Stobart Rail (formerly W A Developments), City Surveys was asked to provide engineering personnel for the duration of this eight week project at Croft.

Whilst we have and do work regularly with Colas Rail throughout the UK, we are always happy to do one more job for one of our favourite clients. This project involved scanning and locating ducts within the slab prior to the client drilling bolts through the area.

Working directly for ESG (formerly Bureau Veritas), City Surveys was appointed to perform high-resolution ground penetrating radar scans on seven electricity sub-stations on the London Underground. As part of the ongoing upgrade to the aging Metropolitan Line new machinery is being installed in twenty two buildings in the north of the city. As part of this process it was necessary to determine concrete cover depth, the presence, diameter and spacing of rebar as well as the location of any voids. As with all of our concrete scanning services, full CAD drawings and analytical reports were delivered for each sub-station.

February saw the first presentation in our 2010 CPD schedule being delivered to Directors and Associate Directors of Waterman Structures at the Clink Street office in London. Whilst we are available to deliver a range of seminars based around continuing professional development, this particular event focused on the range of structural monitoring services that we regularly supply to engineering clients. Whilst the first large presentation of the year is often a daunting one the reaction was positive and resulted in an immediate request for our technical input.

Building upon February’s presentation for Waterman Structures in London, over March and April our team have already been asked to deliver CPD seminars for Arup, Laing O’Rourke and AKS Ward at their London offices. During these events we will be covering the range of services City Surveys already delivers to some of their largest competitors and explaining how they too can use these services to augment their own engineering projects.

After a great deal of toil and paperwork, City Surveys is delighted to announce that we are now a CHAS registered organisation, adhering to this nationally recognized standards of Health and Safety. We hope that, in gaining this qualification, we will be opening ourselves up to a whole range of new opportunities, contracts and clients.
