Structural Survey on Huf / Baufritz Haus?

We've had an offer accepted on a Baufritz house and want to get a structural survey done before completing (for our own peace of mind, not for mortgage purposes).
Baufritz are similar to Huf Haus - a very non-traditional/specialised type of construction.
I have Googled extensively but not turned up any clues... :-(
Any recommendations for Surveyors for this type of specialised house please? The house is in Sussex.

Are there other similar houses in the area? If so, search the council's planning applications to see if any of them have had significant work done - look up the drawings and see who prepared the drawings for the works which is usually noted on the plans ... in all likelihood someone in the surveyor/planning/architectural line of work and a potential contact to ask who knows something about this type of building.0

AFAIK, the Huf houses have pretty stringent build specs, so I'd be surprised it they'd fail a survey.(Other than relating to the mainly glass aspect of the builds.)0
