Drone Surveys Project Oerview
Internal Alterations and wall removal within a commercial restaurant application.
This project was based in a tenement at duke street where internal walls were required to be removed to add bathroom space for customers. The works also involved removing internal walls where new toilets, stores and customer sitting space was required. These alterations gave a more open plan view of the restaurant.
Steel frames and Beams on padstones were used to achieve these wall removals as the walls were load bearing. Where the wall removal was required to achieve an opening for customers to go to the toilets a beam was proposed on padstones. As the existing wall was weak in nature it was proposed that new engineering brick piers were to be constructed on pad foundations to achieve the bearing strength.
To provide more space internally a picture frame of 203 UB was proposed onto 100mm SHS columns. The frame was designed to be within the floor space.
We prepared and managed the necessary approvals including the building warrant process and provided an end to end service with as little disturbance to the client’s renovations.

Lead Structural Ltd. has been appointed to conduct a structural assessment of the WONDER WORLD Kirkcaldy to determine its suitability for a Solar PV Installation. The evaluation involved an on-site inspection, complemented by the systematic compilation of necessary data. Subsequently, calculations were executed regarding both the existing roof loadings and those anticipated for the proposed Solar PV installation. The on-site inspection, conducted under favorable weather conditions, facilitated a non-intrusive visual survey of all facets of the property, with a particular focus on the roof and its underlying framework. The inspection was facilitated by the use of a Quadrotor drone equipped with 4K photography capabilities, allowing for a thorough visual assessment of all roof areas, especially those with limited access. Safety precautions were adhered to This comprehensive examination revealed that the primary structural components of the property remain in good condition for its age, exhibiting no significant signs of degradation or deflection. Overall, the assessment suggested that the property is well-suited for a Solar PV Installation, given the sound state of its structural components. This thorough evaluation provides valuable insights into the property’s suitability for the proposed installation, aiding informed decision-making processes.
