What is a construction layout survey?

A construction layout survey provides a detailed map to serve as a blueprint for builders by locating the precise placement of each element of the development. The survey is conducted prior to work starting on the project.

The surveyor translates the architect’s or engineer’s plans into physical markers at the building site. These markers are set at the locations of walls, corners, doors, windows, and other significant components. This is done to ensure that the construction adheres to the planned design.

After the project has begun, the surveyor will revisit the construction site to ensure the specified requirements are being met. This ensures that the building progresses according to the plan.
