Before foundations or structural work
Provide the latest design revision and identify the positions and levels your contractor needs.
Connect the design to positions on site.
Construction Setout Auckland
THE PURPOSE
Connect the design to positions on site.
Construction setout transfers agreed design positions and levels to the site so your contractor can work from measured reference points. Hall’s existing services include building and engineering setout, drainage, roading and retaining-wall work. The scope is agreed from the latest drawings and your project requirements.
When to discuss this survey
Civil and drainage stages
Discuss the features to set out, reference requirements and sequence of work.
Return visits during construction
Coordinate survey stages with the build programme and tell us when design changes affect the brief.
YOUR DELIVERABLES
Agree the information
your team needs.
Agree the setout marks, reference information and records your contractor needs before the visit. Provide current drawings and identify which revision is authorised for use. Later as-built measurements record completed work; they serve a different purpose from setting out the design.
SCOPING YOUR QUOTE
What affects survey cost?
We quote for your site and agreed deliverables. A site address, current plans and a short brief help us assess the work. These factors shape the scope; they are not a fixed price list.
- Size and complexity of the design
- Positions and levels required at each stage
- Number of visits and site access
- Drawing revisions and coordination requirements
Common questions
When should I book setout?
Contact us before the relevant construction stage. Send the drawings, intended sequence and required timing so scope and availability can be discussed.
What happens when drawings change?
Send the current revision and clearly identify changes before the next survey stage. Do not assume previously marked positions reflect a revised design.
Do I also need a boundary survey?
Some projects need boundary information as well as construction positions. Describe your site and any boundary uncertainty so we can discuss both needs.
