Dimensional control surveying is the technique and science whereby 3-Dimensional spaces are accurately measured to determine the area between points, creating digitally mapped distances and angles.
Dimensional control can be defined as the process of acquiring accurate dimensional documentation that is spatially referenced to a known or established benchmark. Using the latest survey technology from Leica Geosystems, 3B Surveyors can measure and produce 3D CAD models from single pipe spool replacements, wind turbine tower alignments to full Topside/Jacket construction surveys.
The captured data can be transformed to a client’s preferred format, offering quick and easy data evaluation and problem checking. As we offer a full draughting service, we can provide full 3D models using AutoCAD or Micro-station, 2D drawings, piping isometrics or Point Cloud data from our Laser Scanners. Our workforce provides decades of experience in the field of Dimensional Control, Engineering and Land survey.
Dimensional control surveying has been used for decades in the world’s large jacket and fabrication facilities. However, following the Piper Alpha disaster in the North Sea in 1988 in which 167 men lost their lives, Dimensional Control survey began to be used on offshore installations, as the subsequent enquiry found that one of the causes of the fire was naked flame from offshore fabrication, welding and grinding in a highly explosive environment. Dimensional Control survey eliminates the need for this.
3B Survey delivers the latest in 3D detailed laser scanning software and services for maintenance, brown-field and green-field projects. 3B offers its clients the ability to create accurate as-built information which can be modelled and rendered into CAD packages including Auto-plant, PDMS and NavisWorks.
Aiden recently completed his Diploma of Surveying from North Metropolitan TAFE, balancing two years of study while contributing to 20+ projects across Australia and overseas. A fantastic achievement! 👏
Here’s what Aiden said about juggling work with his course and what lies ahead in his career…
COURSE HIGHLIGHTS? “The team aspect throughout the practicals was a highlight for me. Having the opportunity to develop and challenge each other’s abilities as surveyors in some great locations around Perth made the course quite enjoyable.”
HOW DID 3B SUPPORT YOU? “3B supported me with a flexible work roster which enabled me to study the course fulltime and work simultaneously. This was beneficial as I had access to both industry resources and opinions from qualified surveyors.”
WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING FORWARD TO NOW? “The variety in projects that 3B is involved in both in Australia and across the world. It gives any surveyor a good chance to travel and develop their skills in an alternative branch of surveying. Additionally, both drafting and modelling data in greater depth is something I’m also looking forward to now I’m qualified.”
ADVICE FOR ASPIRING SURVEYORS? “Don’t hesitate. There are many great opportunities that come with a Diploma of Surveying. A good portion of the course is practical based with tools and equipment used at industry level allowing for a smooth transition into the industry.”
Aiden’s story reflects the exciting opportunities at 3B Survey, not only for our current team but also for future employees looking to grow their careers in surveying.

We’re turning back the clock to last December!
With our Perth surveying team working across the globe on different projects – and at different times – throughout the year, having so many of us under one roof for Christmas was a rare treat.
To make the most of the occasion (and the professional photoshoot happening at the time!), we captured a happy snap of some of the team – ready for a well-earned break after a big year supporting our clients and their projects.
Now that we’re in March, life is back to normal with everyone busy working on projects near and far. If you’re looking for expert surveying support on your #oilandgas or #civil project in 2025, reach out to 3B Survey today. https://3bsurvey.com.au/

Since 2021, 3B Survey has proudly delivered comprehensive #civil surveying services to the Waitsia Gas Project Stage 2, one of Australia’s largest onshore gas fields.
A team of 12 – including senior surveyors, project surveyors, graduates and assistants – has driven our contribution, utilising cutting-edge equipment including Leica TS16, Leica DNA03 & Hemisphere GNNS for precision and efficiency.
We are now excited to share the extension of our contract into 2025, marking over four years of collaboration with Clough on this critical #civil project.
This year, our focus shifts from greenfield surveying to brownfield services as we support the ongoing operations of the Waitsia project. By delivering high-accuracy spatial data, Clough can make well-informed decisions for maintenance, upgrades, and future developments.
If you’re seeking reliable surveying solutions for your #civil project, reach out to the 3B team today. https://3bsurvey.com.au/
