The Project
MSL Surveys Ltd were asked to carry out a TSA (The Survey Association) level six Utility survey on a very large college site in Oxfordshire. A level six survey is a high specification survey that requires manhole cards that detail information at each drainage access point on the site and a desktop record search.
Historical records of the site indicated that air raid shelters were present. Before the client could begin their construction project, it was important to identify the location of the air raid shelters as this is best safety practice. Leaving these objects underground can lead to costly construction mistakes and risks the safety of employees.
