composite drawings

After retrieving all asset information from every utility, telecommunication or pipeline Company that has buried services within the area of a proposed site our CAD department are able to re-plot the detail of every piece of apparatus on to a single O.S. background. Because the composite is produced using CAD the user is able to look at any cable or pipeline in isolation or in conjunction with any other buried service(s).

This facility is particularly useful for both route planning purposes and desktop surveys as it allows, at a glance, the operative to determine how congested the site is and where each specific cable/pipeline is located in relation to all other plant and the surrounding environment. This service is extremely cost effective when undertaking Route Planning works as it allows the planner, very quickly, to determine the feasibility of any particular route, in relation to existing buried services, and identify alternatives.

• Information transcribed by our very experienced CAD operators of utility information onto one drawing.
• Used by many of our clients for design work and utility diversion studies.
• Excellent tool for planning

Warning – A composite drawing should NEVER be used as an on site utility plan – beware of companies that suggest it can – a full set of in date utility plans MUST be on site during construction phase and used in conjunction with a good utility survey – a composite drawing is NOT the answer to a set of plans.
