The Construction Surveying and Layout seminar is a basic review of the measurements and techniques used in construction layout. It includes a discussion of fieldwork basics, notekeeping, standard measurement practices, errors associated with the measurements, mistakes commonly made in the measurements and procedures (and how to avoid them), calibration and care of instruments, construction measurement practices and layout techniques, building control and layout, checks on layout, and one-person surveying techniques. Numerous step-by-step procedures are presented and discussed. The presentation is thorough in its approach to the many “rules-of-thumb” of construction measurement. This seminar is suited for contractors, field construction supervisors, construction inspectors, and construction layout technicians, as well as experienced surveyors and engineers involved with designing layout systems. It is especially helpful to persons involved in training as it provides helpful suggestions for teaching new persons entering the field. Attendees are expected to have the book: Construction Surveying and Layout.
