Client Brief

Baypoint were the main supplier of Land Surveying, Site Setting out and Volume Calculations for the whole project.

Delivery & Method

This very prestigious project and consisted of seventy-seven residential units with associated external works, which housed the competitors and team officials competing in the sailing events at the 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games

One of our first tasks was to establish a very robust control network of stations around the site. Using these stations throughout the project would ensure our survey data was accurate and repeatable.

As the site required extensive earthworks, we undertook numerous cut and fill surveys and calculations, to assist the groundworker reach the formation level for construction to start.

We initially set out the piles, then ground beam, followed by brickwork, steels and finally the roads.

We worked on the project for about 18 months and played our part in the successful delivery of the project for our client.

The 2012 Olympics went on to be one of the most successful Olympics for the UK.
