Construction Staking-Out

The construction staking-out is the transfer of the layout of the outer periphery of the planned facility to the field or the transfer of the axis of linear construction engineering facilities to the field in a manner that ensures its implementation in accordance with the building permit and the documentation for the execution of the construction. When staking-out we mark the characteristic points of the future object in accordance with the data from the project, on the basis of which the building permit was issued. We can at staking-out as an inverse task of measuring points: the coordinates of the selected points are given and we look for the position of these points in nature.

The construction staking-out is a surveying service commissioned by the investor at the initial stage of construction. If excavation of a construction pit is planned, we first carry out “rough” staking-out to facilitate the excavation work. Once the construction pit has been excavated, we perform “fine” staking-out of the building’s perimeter points within the pit and set out the building’s axes on construction profiles.

When to stake-out the building?

Staking-out of the building is necessary:

• before commencing the construction of a complex or less complex new building, except for extensions;
• before commencing the construction of a complex or less complex infrastructure facility, utility lines, and associated facilities forming part of public infrastructure;
• before commencing the construction of a simple building for which a building permit is not required, if you want to ensure its precise positioning on the site.

Why to stake-out the building?

The object should be staked-out that:

• the investor may register the start of construction in accordance with Article 76 of the Construction Act
• your future object will be properly positioned in the space
• the construction of your facility will not deviate from the project documentation and building permit
• find out the deviations between the project and the true situation and correct them in due time
