Using Centre Line drawings

Setting out a building is a process of transferring an architectural drawing on an actual site or ground.

This includes the location points for site boundaries, foundations, columns, centre-line of columns, wall and other necessary structural parts.
Also, it establishes the building’s correct extent, angle and level.
The entire structure is erected on the basis of the initial setting out of the building on site. and any error in setting out will result in a fault in the structure later.

Accurate setting out is, therefore, a fundamental part of the construction works, and errors can be very expensive and time-consuming to correct.
It should only be undertaken by competent persons, and all work should be thoroughly checked, preferably by different personnel.
So setting out is a very important part of the execution.
So let us see how setting out is done step by step.
