What Is Setting Out?

Setting out is the process of transferring design data from drawings and digital models onto the ground. It ensures that structures, roads, drainage systems and infrastructure are built precisely in accordance with design specifications.

Accurate setting out is essential for:

  • Foundations and structural frames
  • Roads and highways
  • Drainage and utilities
  • Steel and concrete structures
  • Earthworks and levels
Errors in setting out can result in costly delays and rework. Our experienced engineers ensure precision from the outset.
