In order that the Design of the Building Entities can be correctly fixed in
Position, it’s necessary to establish Control Points at suitable locations within
the Site or outside of the site, of which the Easting, Northing, and Elevation
with respect to a given datum are known.
Therefore, using nearby benchmark in the area, levels and coordinates were
transferred to Site Control points (9000-9006) and control points were stabilized
within the site using total station.
With Respect to these Control Points, three or more control points will be
established on the lowest level of the structure in order to carry out all setting
out work of the building accurately and conveniently.
All these control points will be used to set out Grid Lines on the floors once
they are casted and these Grid lines will be used to observe and check the
other structural entities to place in the correct position or to check whether
they have been placed in the correct Position with respect to the Design.
Once these Grid lines are set out, they will be transferred to the necessary
structural elements to observe their verticality within the floor levels.
The Surveying method of using the reflector less Function / method will
also be used to monitor the verticality of some of the structural elements. In
this case off lines of the Grids could be drawn to monitor the Structural
entities.
Accurate Levelling using closed level lines will be used to transfer heights
to these Survey Control Points. The elevation will be transferred to higher
floors either running a Level Line through the Staircase or through the core
wall by accurate tape measurements.
The Location of the initial Survey Control Points will be decided by the
Licensed Surveyor and the Control Traverses and Control Level Lines will
be run by the Licensed Surveyor with suitable Adjustments.
The required lines for excavation, lean concrete shall be marked using steel
rods
Grid off setlines will be then marked using the TL and the measuring tape.
The center point of the columns shall be marked using the total station.
The verticality of the columns shall be checked using the Center Plumb-Bob
and measuring tape.
(Note: 1000 mm offset vertical lines from FFL were marked on
Columns/walls for purpose level marking and checking in elements within
the floor.)
The grid lines shall be transferred to the upper floors by using the Center
Plumb-bob and Total station.
From the selected grid lines 500mm offset shall be marked.
