Welcome to Setting Out Engineering in the UK, a practical learning channel dedicated to Setting Out Engineering, Engineering Surveying and real construction-site practice in the UK.

With over 20 years of hands-on construction and engineering experience, I share practical knowledge gained across major infrastructure, highways, rail, utilities, RC structures and complex civil engineering projects.

On this channel, you will learn about:

• Setting out using Total Stations and GNSS/GPS
• Coordinates, Eastings, Northings and Reduced Levels
• Resection, backsights and survey control
• Leica Total Stations and controllers
• Levelling and benchmarks
• Reading engineering and construction drawings
• AutoCAD for site engineers
• As-built surveys and quality checks
• Drainage, foundations, columns, roads and structural setting out
• QA, tolerances and practical site-engineering procedures

… and many more
