The document discusses the process of setting out a building site. It involves:
1. Transferring dimensions from layout plans onto the ground to clearly define excavation outlines and wall center lines.
2. Using methods like the peg/rope method or dumpy level to establish corners, walls, and rooms.
3. Establishing a datum level as a reference point for other measurements.
4. Working through steps like setting the building line, frontage line, and right angles to fully lay out the building footprint. Checks are made to ensure accuracy.
A presentation with exhaustive information about the general idea of formwork, the various types, the newest introductions and a comparative study between the conventional and modern-day formwork.
It also includes the study of causes of failure of formwork and the safety measures to be taken for preventing failure.
Joints are easy to maintain and are less detrimental than uncontrolled or uneven cracks. Concrete expands & shrinks with variations in moisture and temp. The overall affinity is to shrink and this can cause cracking at an early age. Uneven cracks are unpleasant and difficult to maintain but usually do not affect the integrity of concrete.

Book Formatting: Quality Control Checks for DesignersConfidence Ago
This presentation was made to help designers who work in publishing houses or format books for printing ensure quality.
Quality control is vital to every industry. This is why every department in a company need create a method they use in ensuring quality. This, perhaps, will not only improve the quality of products and bring errors to the barest minimum, but take it to a near perfect finish.
It is beyond a moot point that a good book will somewhat be judged by its cover, but the content of the book remains king. No matter how beautiful the cover, if the quality of writing or presentation is off, that will be a reason for readers not to come back to the book or recommend it.
So, this presentation points designers to some important things that may be missed by an editor that they could eventually discover and call the attention of the editor.

BUILDING TECHNOLOGY AND MATERIALS III
TERM I

The operations carried out once the site is handed over
• Clearing the site
• Setting out the building
• Establishing a datum level
3. 3
What is setting out ?
It is the process of developing the physical positions of corners and walls of a
building, and it’s done by transferring dimensions from the layout plan (also called
as setting out plan, demarcation plan) to the ground. The setting out clearly defines
the outline of the excavations and the centre line of the walls, so that the
construction can be carried out according to the plan.
When is setting out done ?
• when building a new house
• when renovating an already existing one, especially an extension.
The process of Setting out is done by a contractor, and overseen by the lead project
consultant engineer, architect or any other qualified member of the project team.
Function of setting out
• To establish the position of the trench and wall of the house as well as the
position of corners and rooms.
4. 4
METHODS OF SETTING OUT
1. Peg or rope method (commonly used).
2. Dumpy Level (Best for big construction projects)
5. 5
ITEMS REQUIRED IN SETTING OUT.
• Timber, 75mm by 50mm or any
appropriate size.
• Round poles/ timber to act as pegs or
steel for hard ground.
• Nylon threads (Manila rope).
• Ordinary nails inch and 2 inch.
• White chalk or lime.
• Clear hose pipe for determining
horizontal levels.
• Sledge hammer.
• Measuring tape
• Builder’s square
6. 6
DATUM LEVEL
A point which serves as a reference or base for the measurement of other quantities
Where there are no benchmarks on or near the
site, a suitable datum must be established. A
site datum or temporary benchmark could be a
post set in concrete or a concrete plinth set up
on site.
7. 7
PROCESS OF SETTING OUT.
• Setting out is done on the principle of whole to part. According to this principle
the largest possible rectangle of the building is found and set out. The rectangle
is further partitioned into small parts (internal rooms).
• The first thing we need to establish is a parallel/ reference/ base line, to which
all other lines can be related. This can be taken along an existing building close
to the proposed new structure/ boundary wall if existing/ kerb line etc.
9. 9
PROCESS OF SETTING OUT
STEP 1: SETTING OUT THE BUILDING LINE
Two square offset lines are set from the kerb to the position of the building line. The
length of the line is greater than the width of the proposed building.
Pegs are positioned at these points and a ranging line is fixed to these, giving a
position of the building line .
10. 10
STEP 2: SETTING OUT FRONTAGE LINE/ BASE LINE
After taking the dimensions from the drawing, the frontage line is set out. This can be
either on building line or behind it.
The first corner peg (A) will be positioned from dimensions given on the drawing which
relates to site features such as distance from kerb, gate post, boundary wall etc.
Eg: the point A is positioned a distance of (D) from the boundary.
Following the position of first peg, the second peg (B) is positioned after carefully
measuring the width along the frontage line.
The nail is knocked into each peg to determine the exact position of the corner.
11. 11
STEP 3: SETTING OUT OF FIRST RIGHT ANGLE TO THE FRONTAGE LINE
Attach the taut line to the nail on the corner peg which will be extended well beyond the length of the
wall to be set out.
Adjust the line carefully to cross the frontage line at 90 degree by using a builder’s square or the
3:4:5 method.
When the line is correct, knock the peg with nail at the distance greater than the length of the wall.
12. 12
RIGHT ANGLE TRINAGLE USED IN SETTING OUT
One of the most important procedure used in setting out is the process of ensuring that all
right angle corners are properly aligned. One of the simplest ways is to use the method
known as 3:4:5 triangle method.
PROCEDURE:
1. A peg with a nail is fixed exactly at 3m from
the corner peg on the fixed line.
2. A measuring tape is the hooked to the nail on
the corner peg and another tape is hooked to
the nail of the peg on the front line.
3. Both the tapes are pulled towards the end wall
and with distance of 4m showing on one tape
and 5m on the other tape. Where they cross
third peg will be fixed.
4. This will establish a line at 90 degree to the
front line.
13. 13
STEP 4: SETTING OUT OF SECOND RIGHT ANGLE TO THE FRONTAGE
LINE
Measure the same length from the frontage line and set point D.
Check the ranging lines before proceeding.
14. 14
STEP 5: SETTING OUT
OF FINAL BACK LINE
Measure the dimensions of
the building side wall from
the outer peg of the frontage
line and set pegs parallel to
the wall lines.
Attach ranging lines to the
pegs to establish the back
wall line.
Pegs can be positioned at G
and H, but this is not
essential.
15. 15
STEP 6: CHECKING THE
BUILDING SETTING OUT
The setting out will be confirmed if
all measurements are correct and the
diagonals measure exactly the same.
Measure the dimensions from A to G
and B to H. these should be same if
the building has been set perfectly.
If there is some difference in the
measurement, adjust the back pegs
as per dimensions. The frontage line
should not be altered.
16. 16
STEP 7: SET UP PROFILES AND ATTACH RANGING LINES
When the building has been set out and proved by checking the diagonals, profiles can be erected to
enable the corner points to be easily located after the trenches have been excavated.
The ranging lines attached to the pegs are extended by holding the line to pass over the peg to the
profile.
The wall position is then clearly marked on the profile.
17. 17
POSITIONING OF PROFILE
The profiles are positioned well away from the proposed excavations to allow an adequate
working space. This is even more important when the excavations is to be carried out by a
mechanical means.
18. 18
SETTING PROFILE LEVELS
While setting up profiles, it is essential that they are as level as possible. This avoids
inaccuracies when re measuring the walls and diagonals before commencing work.
The profile is most conveniently levelled to the DPC level of the proposed building.
19. 19
BONING RODS
A boning rod is a simple device used to quickly position levelling pegs. It consist of two
pieces of timber nailed together at right angles. Boing rod can be used to transfer levels
between the two known points.
20. 20
MARKING THE POSITION OF FOUNDATION TRENCH
Before excavation begins, the position of the foundation trench is marked on the ground.
The original corner pegs can be then removed. The foundation line is then marked using
lime or a spray paint.
