Planning Permissions & Architectural Plans

UK councils demand certified translations for non-English planning documents like architectural blueprints, site layouts, and elevations. GLS translates technical drawings with precise bilingual glossaries for terms like "load-bearing walls" or "foundation piles," preserving CAD annotations. Notarised versions satisfy Building Regulations 2010 and NPPF guidelines, ideal for Russian-sourced designs in regeneration projects.
Risk Assessments & HSE Reports

Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2015 (CDM 2015) mandate comprehensible risk assessment reports (RARs). Our specialists handle geotechnical surveys, method statements, and hazard matrices, translating "subsidence risk" or "vibration monitoring" accurately for HSE approval. Certified stamps prevent rejections, safeguarding multimillion-pound sites.
Contracts, Tenders & Specifications

For public procurement via Contracts Finder, translate bills of quantities (BoQs), subcontractor agreements, and technical specs. GLS ensures FIDIC-compliant language for JCT contracts, covering clauses on delays, variations, and defects liability. Sworn translations with apostilles support cross-border JVs.
Engineering Calculations & Compliance Certificates

Structural engineers submit translated calculations under Eurocodes (BS EN 1990). We convert formulas, load tables, and seismic analyses from languages like Russian or Polish, maintaining mathematical integrity. Fire safety certificates and BREEAM assessments receive court-admissible certification for Part B compliance.
