Setting out and geodetic site support

Setting out connects a design with the place where it will be built. MK Surveys transfers points, axes and levels from technical drawings to the field using GNSS and total stations, adapting the method to project requirements and site conditions. Field measurements are provided in Albania.

FROM THE PRACTICE’S PORTFOLIO

Setting-out drawing with dimensions and levels from MK Surveys

Denis Kaca · Geodetic engineer · Master’s in GIS · 15 years of experience

We support construction companies, site supervisors and designers who need coordinated positioning on site. Before measurement, we review the drawing revision, coordinate reference and existing control points to clarify the relationship between design and construction.

What the service includes

  • Preparation of point and axis coordinates from client-confirmed drawings.
  • Setting out agreed features and transferring levels.
  • Connection to reference points and position checks.
  • Control measurements or as-built records where agreed.
  • Point documentation and communication with site teams.

What we need to get started

We need the latest DWG/DXF drawings or other usable documentation, site location, coordinate reference and benchmark levels. Tell us which features are to be set out, the work sequence, required project tolerances and available access. Design revisions must be identified before measurement.

Scope and limitations

Tolerances and marking methods are agreed in advance. Marks can be damaged during construction, so checks or repeat setting out require coordination. The service relies on supplied designs and references and does not replace the designer’s responsibilities.

FAQ / 02

Frequently asked questions

Do you use GPS or a total station?

The choice depends on the task, satellite signal, obstacles and site references. We can use GNSS, a total station or a combination.

Do you check positions after construction?

We can include control measurements and documentation of as-built positions, with an agreed scope and format.

What happens if the design changes?

Before further setting out, we need the updated revision and confirmation of changes to coordinates, axes or levels.
