STAGE B - Build and Construction Phase


PEG OUT SURVEY

1. What is a peg out survey?

A peg out survey involves the placement of marks on the corners of property boundaries or, if required, offset to assist with fencing. These marks serve as reference points for the footings or slabs of a new development. The surveyor precisely positions these marks to indicate the exact locations of the property boundaries, aiding in accurate construction and alignment of structures. A peg out survey ensures that the construction process adheres to the designated boundaries and facilitates the proper placement of footings or slabs, ensuring that the new development is built in the correct location within the property.

2. Why do you need a peg out survey?

A peg out survey is essential for various construction projects, including granny flats, garages, outbuildings, extensions, duplexes, triplexes, and townhouses. It plays a critical role in marking the boundaries between your property and neighboring properties, ensuring compliance with property lines and legal requirements. When installing a new fence or constructing new dwellings, a peg out survey is necessary to accurately determine the exact location of the boundaries. By providing precise boundary markings, this survey enables proper alignment during construction, ensuring that structures are built within the designated property limits and avoiding potential boundary disputes or encroachments.

VOLUME OF EXCAVATION

1. What is a volume of excavation?

A volume of excavation refers to the calculation of the quantity of soil that is removed from a construction site during the excavation phase. It involves determining the total volume of soil excavated, usually measured in cubic meters or cubic yards. The volume calculation takes into account the dimensions and contours of the excavated area to provide an accurate estimate of the amount of soil displaced. This information is crucial for various purposes, such as determining the cost of soil removal, assessing the impact on the site's topography, planning for soil disposal or backfilling, and ensuring compliance with regulatory requirements.

2. Why do you need a volume of excavation?

A volume calculation report is essential when working with an excavation contractor, particularly in cases where a dispute arises between the builder and the excavator regarding the amount of soil that has been excavated. By having a detailed and accurate volume of excavation calculation, you can provide clear evidence of the quantity of soil removed from the site. This report helps in resolving disputes, ensuring fair and transparent agreements between the parties involved. It serves as an objective reference point, enabling informed decision-making, accurate cost assessments, and proper documentation during the construction process. Ultimately, a volume of excavation calculation provides clarity and helps maintain a smooth working relationship between the builder and the excavator.
