What are Construction Set-outs?
- They allow for the construction to be done in accordance with the approved designs.
- They enable the construction team to build exactly as planned, as markers are physically laid out in front of them.
- They ensure that the construction is done within the legal boundary lines, which can help avoid potentially expensive and disruptive legal disputes.
- Before construction begins, physical markers are laid out to help identify any potential design flaws.
- Construction set-out is a necessity for effective management of construction crew on any size project, from modest homes to substantial commercial building projects.
How can we help with a Construction Set-out Survey?
We will first review and identify anomalies (if any) in the design drawings prior to heading out on-site. Once on-site, we will transfer the design onto the construction site by way of setting out construction grid lines with survey markers and also establishing Temporary Bench Marks (TBMs) with an established Level in accordance with the design drawings for the rest of the Construction works to be based on. A Plan of Set-out will be issued showing the results of our Construction Set-out Survey, which can be used for convenience throughout the construction process.

- Residential and commercial establishment extensions and renovations
- Building new apartments, homes, townhouses and units

Frequently Ask Questions
A Construction Setout Survey is a survey to pinpoint the proposed construction footprints and gridlines on site. This means transferring the proposed construction design onto the land itself, establishing key points and using markers to guide the builders and trades and to ensure accuracy of construction as intended by the approved design.
A Construction Setout Survey is required at the beginning stages of any construction works. This is to ensure the works parameters are accurate and assist the builders and trades to be able to work with confidence and accuracy
Before a Construction Setout Survey is undertaken, the following pre-requisites are required:
- Approved Construction Drawingsin CAD format – Although a PDF copy is usually presented, we will require a Computed Aided Diagram CAD version of the Construction Drawings in order to review and properly identify anomalies (if any) prior to undertaking the survey. This will enable the Construction Setout Survey to proceed with confidence.
- Title Re-establishment Survey – A copy of a previously undertaken Title Re-establishment Survey is required (including sufficient boundary marks still physically present) prior to the Construction Setout Survey. This is important as the approved design would have been based off a relationship to the legal title boundaries of the subject site
Feature & Level Survey – A copy of a previously undertaken Feature & Level Survey is required prior to the Construction Setout Survey. The approved construction drawings would have been based of a Feature & Level survey, and thus in particular the intended design levels can only be determined by reference to the pre-design Feature & Level survey
