Highly accurate volume surveys to support project planning, resource management, and compliance.
A volume survey, sometimes referred to as a volumetric survey, measures the quantity of earth, aggregates, or other materials within a defined area or stockpile. These surveys are essential for determining cut and fill requirements, calculating stockpile volumes, or verifying material movements across a project site.
Volume surveys provide reliable, data-driven insights for:
At MCS Surveyors, we utilise the latest survey technology to capture detailed, three-dimensional data, ensuring every volume measurement is precise, compliant, and ready to support your project's needs.
Accurate volume data plays a crucial role in project success, influencing both operational efficiency and regulatory compliance. Without reliable volume surveys, projects risk:
Volume Surveys are typically required for:
With precise volume measurements, you can reduce waste, optimise material movements, and keep projects within budget and on schedule.
At MCS Surveyors, we deliver detailed volume surveys using advanced technologies tailored to the unique requirements of your site. Our services include:
We provide accurate assessments of earthwork requirements, determining how much material needs to be excavated (cut) or added (fill) to achieve your project's design levels.
Our team captures detailed data to measure stockpiles of soil, aggregates, sand, gravel, or other materials, supporting efficient material management and reducing the risk of disputes.
Ongoing volume surveys track project progress, verifying quantities moved or materials used at each stage, essential for contractors, developers, and project managers.
We create detailed 3D models and surface comparisons to visualise terrain changes and material distribution, providing clear, actionable insights.
We assist with surveys for land rehabilitation, erosion control, and regulatory compliance, ensuring your project meets environmental standards.
All survey data is provided in clear, easy-to-understand formats, including PDF plans and CAD/DWG files to integrate seamlessly with your project workflows.
Our proven process delivers reliable, efficient results:
We meet with your project team to understand site conditions, objectives, and required deliverables.
We utilise the latest total stations, GPS technology, and drone/UAV mapping to gather precise spatial data. Drone photogrammetry and 3D laser scanning may be employed for complex or large-scale sites.
Using industry-leading software, we process the survey data to generate accurate 3D surface models, contours, and volume calculations.
Our Registered Surveyors produce clear reports, including cut and fill quantities, stockpile volumes, and comparative data against design levels or previous surveys.
We offer repeat surveys to track progress, verify material quantities, and support project documentation requirements at every stage.
By combining cutting-edge technology with expert knowledge, MCS Surveyors ensures your volume data is accurate, compliant, and delivered on time.
MCS Surveyors has extensive experience delivering volume surveys for a wide range of industries, including:
Our team understands the specific requirements of your industry, ensuring our surveys meet both project and regulatory expectations.
