The areas surveyed were a mix of office buildings, aircraft hangers, warehouses and roofs. Coordination was required with the occupants of these areas to allow access to tenanted areas or high security areas such as police stations or currency exchanges. Our surveyors were required to complete a GSAT course and obtain security passes for each airport. The roof surveys required high level access equipment, MEWPs or boom lifts, to be hired by the client and training given to the surveyor.
