Description: |
Discusses the advantages and pitfalls of the increasing use of global positioning systems instruments in providing control for projects, and how this revolutionises the way in which setting out is performed in the future. This work is suitable for engineers and surveyors involved in the planning, design, and execution of a construction project. |
Synopsis: |
There are few tasks in surveying that carry more onerous responsibilities than setting out. The financial cost of mistakes can be horrendous and completely out of proportion to the perceived value of the task. Setting out is just one part of a complex series of processes which spans the whole project from inception to final construction and beyond. Accurate and efficient setting out is essential if any civil engineering project is to meet the stringent financial targets imposed upon it by modern construction systems. |
