Christchurch

Following the September 2010 earthquake Staig & Smith have become involved in the survey of damaged buildings in Christchurch to assess verticality and floor mis-levelment.

We have recently opened an office in Christchurch in response to the increasing demand for surveying, land development engineering design, building surveys and resource management as Christchurch recovers.

The recovery effort requires a wide range of inputs for the repair of damaged buildings and infrastructure along with the development of new subdivisions to meet the demand for replacement housing.  Our team can provide the following services in-house, as an integrated package:

Surveying

Staig & Smith, Montreal Street office, scheduled for completion in October 2015.

• Land Transfer surveys for subdivision​

• Boundary redefinition

• Boundary adjustment

• General topographic surveys

• As-built surveys and plans

• Ground deformation and monitoring surveys

• 3D laser scanning (cliff faces and historic facades and general building deformation survey)

Building Surveys

• Building demolition monitoring

• Building set out (commercial, industrial and residential)

Engineering

• Subdivision infrastructure design (roading, sewer, stormwater, water earthworks)

• Land development engineering plans and approvals

• Carpark design

• Cost estimating, tender documents, contract administration and supervision

• On-site stormwater treatment systems

• Detention basin/flow attenuation design

CAD Services
