This handy reference was written to help builders, contractors and developers understand this important subject so they can handle more of their own survey and layout work.If you've been paying for simple surveys, guessing about boundaries, or have had trouble making accurate layouts, this valuable reference will save you time and money.It shows how to make a survey for any residential or commercial lot, driveway, road, or bridge -- including how to figure cuts and fills and calculate excavation quantities.
The book by engineer Paul Stull is just super. It is easy to understand & Paul's layout & surveying methods can be used & understood immediately by the novice. It is not only great for laying out sites for the building tradesman or woman but it can also be used by cabinet makers like myself for layouts in the shop. You know those trig. classes we all slept through in school???? Well Paul Stull makes sense out of all that was boring. Can't wait to get my own edition of this book, since I have been borrowing a friend's. This book is a great tool for architects, landscapers, contractors, wanna be excavators, carpenters & cabinetmakers etc. Gotta have it...... Herb Soss
