As our name suggests, Queensland Surveying Solutions services areas throughout all parts of Queensland. Here we are on the Monto Mount Perry Rd assisting with the construction of a new bridge.
When constructing a bridge, the information provided by the surveyor plays an integral role in the process. It ensures that engineers and construction personnel alike are aware of how the project is advancing and provides an opportunity for corrections to be made if needed. The surveyors role is to assist in ensuring that the design/structural requirement’s are being met. Bridges require highly detailed survey work, therefore a thorough understanding of what survey information is required for structures of these types is extremely important. QSS employees are fully equipped with the relevant knowledge to complete projects such as bridges with confidence.
Did you know what one of the very first steps are before building your new home or adding on an extension? It’s a contour and detail survey!
A contour and detail survey is essential in this process. Typically, it provides the location and levels of existing areas by surveying at ground level, underground and above ground (services). It takes in features including trees, footpaths and other key surroundings/structures within your land parcel. It also includes some detail on an adjoining property if required. The amount of detail provided depends on the scope provided by your architect and what your project entails.
Data gained by the surveyor is used to produce a detailed plan which is essential in providing accurate information for designers/architects. It assists them in generating the best design possible for your site and making it compliant with local councils. It also protects you against future implications in regards to flooding.
Other surveys you may require:
- Boundary Identification Survey
- Building Set Out Survey – Includes form 16

Did you know that surveyors play an integral role in preparing for many types of construction work?
If you are building a home, erecting a carport or adding an extension, you will require a qualified surveyor to ‘set out’ your project. A set out survey is basically just transferring an architectural/design drawing onto the land. The process ensures that your build complies with the original plan. It also allows the builder to use the markers provided to ensure accuracy of the building and its dimensions.
Having a set out completed by a qualified surveyor guarantees that the construction is within relevant property boundaries.
For assistance with council approvals, a surveyor’s certificate also known as a Form 16 is provided to show that the construction has been set out in the correct position in relation to the property boundaries.

It really is an amazing building and we were fortunate to work along side others from pre construction stages right through to completion.
