Understanding What Kentucky Site Survey And Land Surveying Is All About

By Melissa Morgan


Land surveying refers to the job of a surveyor who helps to locate a piece of land with the aid of science and technology. It is about finding the three-dimensional positioning of the land and other details related to it. Kentucky site survey and land surveying eventually helps to point out the location of terrains or sort out the boundaries.

The majority, if not all, of site surveying, is non-intrusive. Despite that, you might need to submit a risk assessment and method statement. Any specific works requiring means of access, shutting down the Air Handling Unit (AHU), the shutdown of heating or fitting an electric CT meter on a chiller will all require a separate risk assessment and method statement.

Field Work - We all know that this involves being outside taking actual measurements. Field work often includes very active, laborious work. Surveying requires extended periods of time on your feet, climbing obstacles with heavy equipment. Weather conditions are often a challenge in the field. Surveyors work in hot, cold, windy and rainy weather.

There are numerous hazards in existing buildings. The existing plant room might not be a construction site, but believe me, there are just as many risks in surveying a plant room as well. Here are just a few hazards you might face: steam leaks, bare steam and condensate return pipes, electrical equipment, confined spaces, a hot and humid environment, asbestos, Weil's disease, dehydration, heat stroke, slips and trips, falling from height, moving parts, risk of infection and long working hours.

But why is surveying important? Surveying plays the key role in bringing the effective result to your vision of establishing buildings or constructions. Regardless of good position and adequate condition, it is important to survey the other details for utilizing the various other fields like communication, building, mapping, transportation and construction. Hence, to develop the perfect environment for the people, land survey or site surveying is important.

Setting - The last part of a surveyor's job is to set out markers that map out the boundaries of the land and structures that will be placed on it. This is an especially important part of the job because many problems come up with land boundaries and as a surveyor; you need to be absolute without doubt to prove that the boundaries you have set are in fact the legal boundaries of the property.

The best thing is for energy consultants to work in pairs, but sometimes this is not practical. In this case, always maintain contact via a text message, say every hour, and always know where your partner is. Do not go into service ducts on your own. Always have someone with you.

No matter the size of your business, you will find many beneficial uses for survey data. However, many small businesses do not have the same kind of resources that larger businesses have, making it harder to accomplish data gathering. Thankfully, there are advanced online survey tools and solutions designed for businesses with limited resources. Disputes have come about due to inaccurate boundary lines. The process of land surveying needs to be done in such an accurate manner that issues don't arise later disputing land boundaries.
