During the practical course, students will attain comprehensive proficiency in utilizing the equipment essential for the setting-out process, fostering confidence and expertise. They will develop a thorough understanding and comfort in operating the specific tools crucial for precise engineering tasks. This hands-on experience ensures students’ readiness to effectively handle equipment within the setting-out procedures.
A total station and robot EDM is an instrument used in modern surveying. It is an electronic theodolite with integrated electronic distance measurement (EDM) to read and calculate bearings between two points. With its onboard computer a total station can calculate the co-ordinates of any point on site.

These instruments are used to accurately identify levels on site. An automatic level uses line of sight, enhanced by telescope, while a laser level emits a visible beam. Both rely on the use of a marked staff to mark out positions.
This equipment is used to accurately lay pipes. The laser measures distance and alignment for tunnel borings, setting of pipes and setting of line & grade for many types of construction.
A calculator used to aid bearing, distance and co-ordinate calculations.
