Engineering Survey Services

Construction Layouts
Construction layout surveys are associated with the layout of new facilities or earthworks.
Point locations determined from the supplied engineer’s drawings and set in the field as a guide for the construction of new structures, roads and utilities.  Construction layout surveys can include the following.

• Stake out markers and reference points that will guide the construction of new structures
• Conduct an ss-built survey, which is a survey conducted at the end of the construction project. It verifies that the work authorized was completed to the specifications setout on the plans.
• Stake out lot corners, limit of work and stake location of construction trailer is clear of all excavation and the construction site.
• Verify the location of the structure or structures during construction
• Will include horizontal control on multiple floor levels.

3D Digital Terrain Models (DTM)
What is DTM? Well, it is similar to the topographical maps that have been used in the field for years.
DTMs are generated using ground-based laser scanning equipment which  provide high-resolution bare earth models of the terrain's surface that are suitable for geomorphological studies. Using the elevation models, and features that include back-tilted slope units, lobate accumulation zones, scarps, and irregular topography can be enhanced to allow delineation and classification of landslides.

Borehole Survey
We can assist you with a borehole survey.  A borehole survey is used to determine the course of, and the target point reached by, a borehole, using one of several different azimuth and dip recording apparatuses that is small enough that it can lowered into a borehole. This can also be referred to as a drillhole survey and directional survey.

Engineering Surveys Also Cover

• Measurement and calculation of volumes
  
• Volume or area calculations, sections and setting-out schedules
