ENGINEERING SURVEYING 091101

1.0 INTRODUCTION

All the students are required to do a setting out of building which is including prove datum,
calculation of data, setting out observation, pegging and checking the establish point of the
building. This survey required to pegging 10 point of the building. It is critical as without
calculation before start pegging with using AutoCAD, or manual calculation and CDS to sketch
the bearing and distance that will peg and do all the calculation needed.

Surveyors should be prove clearly datum from existing traverse and do the setting out work
by radial method from the selected control station or from the baseline and pegging at the corner
of the proposed building. After finish peg for the corner, surveyor required to have to check
whether the peg is accurate or not. Then, do the checking from other station.

2.0 OBJECTIVE

The objectives of this exercise are:

i. To calculate and compare the bearing, distance and coordinate manually and
using CDS.

ii. Pegging the 10 point that required to setting out a building.


iii. Checking the establish point at different station.
iv. To train the students in working together as a group and to encourage the spirit of
teamwork and interaction among the members.
v. To provide the students with an actual job scenario of road design survey which
exposes them to almost all the challenges and difficulties faced in that type of
surveying.

6.0 METHODOLOGY

6.1 Reconnaissance

After we get our location work from Prof. Madya. Md Akhir bin Md Wazir, we do planning
work. We need to determine the area of our work. We need to determine all 10 points can be
plant from only one station (STN 3) or not. Make sure that all point can be seen using total
station from control point station 3 and the datum must be proved. Our dimension of our building
is 60m × 30m. Our checking of position will do at station 2.

6.2 Data Calculation

Data calculation can be manual or by using CDS. We use both of that method to comparison.
The comparison of the bearing, distance and coordinate is same.

Manual:

We calculate data manually using latit and dipat method. We calculate the data from station 3.
From the coordinate given, we can get the bearing and distance. For checking we calculate data
from station 2. All calculation was shown in field book. Please refer field book page 47 and 48.

CDS:

We also calculate the data using CDS software for comparison with manual calculation. For our
work, we refer the bearing and distance calculation from CDS software. Please refer field book
page 49.

6.3 Prove Datum

Verify datum is based on the traverse station that establish during the route survey on task 2.
From that establish station, we have proved 4 datum. But we used datum 1-3. Please refer field
book page 45.

- The datum is based on the traverse station that during the route survey on task 2.
- Set up instrument at Station 1 and back sight to Station 2 and foresight at Station 3.
- The bearing and distance for station can use as datum because it is in allowed limit.

6.4 Observation And Pegging

The setting out data was used during this observation. The dimension of our building is 60m ×
30m. we pegging the point by using radial method.

- We start work at station 3. Firstly, setup the instrument at station 3 and back bearing
at station 2.
- Then find bearing and distance for all points (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10) calculated using
CDS. We used a prism to obtain the true position.
- When the position of the point was found and correct, we pegging that point by using
the stick given.
- After complete the pegging, we prepare the checking to ensure the position of point is
correct.

6.5 Checking

Checking is done by observation from different station. For checking the correct position:

- We set up the instrument at station 2 and back bearing to station 3.


- Observe all 10 points and checking all the position of points is in the correct position
based on the bearing and distance calculated in CDS software.
- Our position was in correct position because still in the limit given. The difference is
allowed for the displacements are 0.010m. Please refer field book page 52 and 54.

8.0 CONCLUSION

From this task 4, there are lots of things that we have learned such as procedure from
planning work, calculation of data until make an analysis and plan. We are used the same
traverse that we had been established during the last task. We just need to verify the datum first
before start work.

Before start with field work, planning and computation should been done. We used CDS
and we do some calculation by manually for comparison. From that both technique that we used,
we get that the result for bearing and distance is not too obvious. Most of the value is same and a
few values have difference is about 0.001m and 0.002m only.

We pegged the 10 point by using radial method. Then we checked the position at
different station. From calculation, we found that there are some difference between set up
survey and checking. But our setting out is in the acceptable the range. The acceptance tolerance
of setting out survey is ±10mm. The different overall is between -8mm and 6mm. This error is
because the error in setting the instrument or the movement of the peg.

From this task 4, we can conclude that our setting out is success because we can manage
and complete this task on time, and our error is in range. The most important thing in this task is
planning and calculation.

9.0 INDIVIDUAL COMMENT

MOHD AZIZULHAFEEZ B. MOHD RAFIEI 2008286902

Alhamdulillah I would to thank Allah swt for His merciful and opportunity during we
completing the task gaven. Also not forgotten to my lecturer, Prof Madya Mat Akhir b. Md
Wazir and friends for the guidance and knowledge. Without them, its quiet impossible for us to
manage the task accordingly to engineering surveying principle.

For this task, the objective is to carry out setting out survey. Basically this survey is carry
out before a building is built. The application of this survey is to determine the point on the site
of the building. The point will be use for piling or any construction use. For this task, we design
the grid on CDS and evaluate all the points parameter before carry out the field work. we used
our previous traverse as our datum and pin point the location on the ground based on the CDS
data. There were 10 points and all points were being checked on 2 different station. The
difference of coordinate between this 2 point must not exceed 10 mm. The errors occur due to
the hot weather, human error and unstable pegging which is only using chopstick. But all points
still remain in the tolerance.

Lastly, This task has been a difficult task because it required a good communication
skilled to give and to take order in positioning the building mark. This practical give more
advantages for student because expose them to the real situation of survey work. Lastly, the most
important thing in this task is the accuracy because it gives the big effect to the building that will
be built

MOHD AZRIL BIN CHE AZIZ 2008286904

Alhamdulillah, our groups have finished Setting Out (Task 4) with successfully. A
special thanks to Associate Prof. Madya. Mat Akhir bin Md Wazir for guidance and advice in
completing this task.

This task, our group have been given the survey area where is located at between of Jalan
Pengkalan Hulu and Jalan Gerik of Uitm Seri Iskandar, Perak. This area is near to the Bidara
College and padang Kawad. The purpose of this task is to pegging the area that needs to develop.
The area dimension is 60m × 30m which the interval from point to point is 10m.

First of all, as usual our group do the planning and computation before we started our
work which is important to reduce the time and cost. Our group done the computation by using
CDS software and manually for making comparison between the coordinate values that we get.
Then, we do the reconnaissance and prove the datum for our base station to starting the work.
Here our groups have proved 4 datum but we used datum at STN 1-3. The different angle is 7”
which is not more than 10”. Otherwise, the station is on a stable ground and at visible area.
Furthermore, it is easy place to pegging the peg at the required area.

For pegging work, we setup the total station at Stn 3 and backsight to Stn 2. Our group
use radial method to pegged all 10 point by using chopstick. For checking process we had setup
the total station at Stn 2 and backsight to Stn 3 and the coordinate value that we get we compare
with the set up survey value. All the coordinate value is in the acceptable the range. The
acceptance tolerance for our setting out survey task is ±10mm. From the result, coordinate value
at PT 2 is at higher different with 0.006 for North and -0.008 for the East. Overall the different
that we get is around -8mm and 6mm. I think the displacement of our group chopstick maybe
because of the area is a ways for the student to go play football at the court besides our survey
area. From this task, I also learned that we need to fence the chopstick or peg that we have
pegging to avoid from any disturbance. Otherwise, we need to spray our chopstick or peg for
easy to locate the point that have been peg.

Finally, from this task I had gain knowledge for setting out survey starting from the
planning of survey until producing the plan of the survey area. Furthermore, I have been
calculating points that need to be pegging by using CDS software. This is something new
experience for me.

Overall, this work needs the cooperation of each group members in completing the task.
Lastly, I would like to present my very thankful to our lecturer, Associate Professor Prof. Madya.

Alhamdulillah and very much thanks to Prof Mat Akhir Md. Wazir for his guide to
complete our fourth task on setting out the buildings. This job is added more knowledge for me and keep
me more confidence when become to the real job outside. Thanks to my group members that always
refresh me with all the theory we learned when in class to be applied fieldwork.

For this setting out of the building, our group has been assigned by Prof Mat Akhir Md.
Wazir to do this at field near the Bidara colleges. In order to complete this job, our group needs to peg 10
point of the building that has been calculated before. For the datum, we have approved by previous
traverse work and get the difference in distance which is 3 mm and 7 second for bearing.

For data preparation , we have calculate the data given by using CDS , AUTOCAD and
manual calculation then compare it within each data. The result is, the coordinate given is same within
each other. Then we proceed to site work to peg all the 10 point from station number 3 and after that, the
checking was done at station 3. The difference of coordinate from the checking does not exceed the
allowable error where has been set before not more than 10 mm. This show that our work has been done
correctly by follows the procedure.

Then we proceed to our plan preparation by using the format given and produce our
product using autocad. This jobs were keep me refresh with the software such as CDS and Autocad. i
would like to thanks to all group that sharing information together and changing their ideas with me. This
cooperation make our jobs run smoothly.

Assalammualaikum …..

Firstly I want to say thank too my lecturer Prof Mat Akhir, because of the briefing and
advice in this task more useful to our group to complete the setting out building task. To my
group members thanks lot because given commitment during at field work setting out and
preparation of calculation and report for this task.

Objective the setting out building survey is how to establish the point of border building
before starting the construct that building. The planning and reconnaissance are important
because let we know the environment that survey area, to make sure that point pegging of
building not enter to the behind area lots or border other lots.

The preparation of calculation of setting out building points are important too, at the field
not have many time to calculate the bearing and distance for each building point. In this task we
do the manual calculation and CDS calculation based on the coordinates on the plan are given to
us by Prof Mat Akhir t before we do the setting out survey at field. The difference between the
manual calculation in range 0.002 meter and 10” for the bearing.

Setting out survey need to prove datum or do traversing for that area setting out survey,
in our task we start with prove datum or prove three good mark at the field. The difference
between angle three mark are 07” and 0.002m distance that mark. We accepted that that mark as
a datum because the difference of angle and distance still in tolerance prove three good mark 10”
for angle and 0.005m for the distance.

After that we do the setting out survey based on the calculation from CDS as a reference.
We start with observe and pegging the control point P1,P2,P3, P4 and lastly observe and
pegging the sub_building point. Then do the checking for that point are pegged from other
station. For the second day we do the checking again, such as real work we need check again the
point are pegged after 1 month to check and satisfied the changes of point building.

In the office work or calculation work after observation and checking we can determine
the each coordinates point, from the coordinate 1 observation and checking we made the
analysis. The tolerance coordinate are given to this task is a 0.010meter. The difference or error
for each coordinates point building in range 0.007 for east and 0.008 for north but it’s still accept
because still in tolerance range.

The difference coordinate or the movement of the point are pegged may cause of the
difference of day observation and checking, the human factor and others. As last conclusion from

Alhamdulillah, finally we finish this task successfully. Thank to our lecturer Prof. Madya.
Md Akhir bin Md Wazir because guide us and give much of information. Also thank to our
member group for their cooperate in this task. Our location work given by Prof. Madya. Md
Akhir bin Md Wazir near to the Bidara College and padang Kawad. Setting out is the process of
transferring the distance from the plan already prepared to the ground before starting any
construction. The main objective of this practical is to setup for setting out of a simple building.
It is very important to get the correct position, shape and size of the building.

Before we start work at field, we need to do some calculation the get the position of the
10 point of the building. For our group, we used two method, by calculate manually and by using
CDS software. From both calculation, we get the same data. We used CDS calculation as our
references. We calculate the data from station 3 for start observation and station 2 to check all
point that have been plant.

The first thing we do at site is prove the datum. We prove datum 2-1-3 and we get
different 07” and different distance is 0.002m. from that different mean that the datum can be use
to proceed our work. After we prove datum, we start pegging point of the building at station 3
and back bearing to station 2. We observe the point by using radial method. From station 3, we
observe and peg all 10 point. From the bearing and distance we get from the calculation, we find
the position of 10 point and peg using stick given.

When all 10 point have been peg, we need to check from different station to know the
position of pegging point is in correct position. From the checking we get the different between
the observation and checking. We check from station 2 and we found that the coordinate is
different but still in tolerance not more than 10mm. Our different is between -8mm and 6mm.
This mean that our different is still in acceptable range.

This error maybe because of the error in setting the instrument and targeting the cross
hair to the center of prism. The important of setting out survey is to check the work to prove the
position that we mark are correct. This is because when at the construction site, the control point
that we used to setting out might be disturb or move or not in good condition.

From this task I have increase my knowledge and information in surveying about setting
out. As a conclusion, the setting up building is a task that need lot of knowledge in calculation
and precision in pegging, so that the error in setting out building will be not occur in field.

Here, I would like to thanks to all my teamwork as they give full commitment and
perhaps unknown to some of them, their assistance and friendship has made this demanding
project an enjoyable experience. Then, not forget to our high gratefulness is to our beloved
Engine Surveying lecturer, Prof. Madya. Mat Akhir bin Md Wazir for he has helped much by
giving the guidelines and information that we need.

We had been given a task to conduct setting out building at the junction of Jalan
Pengkalan Hulu and Jalan Gerik. This area near to the Bidara College and Padang Kawad. The
purpose of this setting out building is to peg 10 point that required to setting out the building. In
addition, the objective of this survey is to give an experience to the students to the real survey
work.

Before the pegging work is done, we have to calculate, and determine first the value of
each point that has to be set up. The calculations were done by using CDS software. The
calculations are based from STN3 and the bearing and distances from STN3 to all point to be set
up with stick are being calculated. The entire coordinate (coordinate of grid building) were also
given and the horizontal control network are based on the previous task.

Then, during the field work we have to do proving the datum and the result is the datum
can be used because the difference is still in tolerance where angle 07” and the distance is
0.002m. Then we proceed with pegging process.

After proceed the pegging with stick, we do the checking where the total station is set up
at STN2 and we observed the points that have been set up. From the observation, we calculated
the coordinate and compared it with the coordinate that already calculate using CDS software.
From the calculation, we found that there are some difference between set up survey coordinate
and coordinate from checking. But our setting out is in the acceptable the range. The acceptance
tolerance of setting out survey is ±10mm. The different overall is between -8mm and 6mm. This

error is because the error in the total station itself where the difference between face left and
right that have been identified in the previous task(instruments test) is 07”.

Here, I would suggest that in order to make sure and maintain the position of peg, we
need to fence the peg to avoid any disturbance. The shape of the fence is triangle and we must
mark it by using the safety tape. Beside that, I would suggest that we do pegging as specify and
show like below :

The results that we got are satisfied and we have achieved the objective of the survey
camp. Here, we have learned how to conduct the setting out building starting from the
calculation till produce the plans .It is also can give me an experience in process data using CDS
and prepared the plan using the AUTOCAD. Besides that, we have learned the spirit of the
teamwork in finishing this work. It is can give us a good experience in preparing to the real
works. Thank you to the other members for the good cooperation and work hard to complete this
survey work.
