Project Objectives/ Outcomes
For the purposes of the ongoing refurbishment and refit work to existing store and expansion into new stores across the UK and Europe, TJX Europe contacted Murphy Surveys to complete internal and external measured building surveys, 2D AutoCAD plans, elevations and cross sections, and 3D As-Built Building Information Models (BIM) in Autodesk Revit format.
Our Role
Murphy Surveys mobilised specialist survey teams to visit the store locations, based on an agreed program of works with the client. The teams were required to visit the stores during normal opening hours. Due to non-intrusive methods and experience in similar environments, the surveys caused no disruption to store activities.
The stores were quickly, accurately and cost-effectively surveyed using a combination of High Definition Lasers (HDS), and Total Station (TPS) methods. The survey data was then checked and processed into 2D and 3D outputs.
Using these accurate BIM models, TJX Europe now enjoys a faster and smoother store construction process from design to completion.
