Assignment 2 -Part A
Design and construction professionals often focus on developing and improving the
design of temporary structures (such as scaffolding systems and concrete form
work). This is done to enhance the quality and structural integrity of the systems,
while prioritising the safety of those using them. In a typical construction site,
surveyors may use equipment such as: total stations, theodolites, 3-D scanners, and
digital levels.
Requirements for the assignment:
Write a technical memo elaborating on the application (step-by-step procedure) of
surveying techniques needed to install temporary structures on a construction site
properly. Focus on the tasks that need to be undertaken to ensure temporary
structures are installed appropriately (Keep in mind what the purpose of temporary
structures is). Ensure that your memo focuses on surveying techniques’ role in
installing temporary structures.
Consider the following rubric when you’re writing your assignment:
Item Explanation Suggested Mark
Introduction
Provide a short
explanation on the
application of surveying
instruments to determine
the correct location of
temporary structures
(such as scaffolding and
form work) in different
construction scenarios.
You may select a
particular case study to
help you with this (e.g. a
building, a bridge, a
tunnel, etc…). It is
suggested to use the
construction stage of the
project, as this is when
temporary structures are
used the most.
Hint: You may discuss
about finding bearing
angles and distances
using surveying
equipment for the
purpose of connecting
temporary structure to the
main building. (But do
not limit your discussion
to this point)
Technical sketches Present technical
drawings to support the
points made in the main
body. You must use
either AUTOCAD or
REVIT for this section.
Conclusions and future
technology
Write a concluding
paragraph summarising
your general
understanding and
provide a couple of
sentences about how
future surveying
techniques might change
the way temporary
structures are installed
and designed (specially
how they would improve
their quality and safety).
Overall presentation Ensure you write a clean
and neat report. Format it
appropriately and ensure
it is not a hard document
2 extra bonus marks
You just need to explain how you can determine the location of the temporary structures
on the site in order that the temporary structures can be installed accurately.
Assignment 2 -Part B
Based on the field work activities that we have done from week 7 to week 11, please provide
a field report which focuses on the factual details of a project case. It should cover the
circumstances and contributing factors that help us understand how theory applies to real-
world scenarios. Below are the main steps you will need in order to effectively write your
field report:
1. Define the objective(s) of the field report (Maximum 300 words).
Clearly state the purpose of each of the field work activities that you have carried out.
This will help you determine the focus of the report and should ensure that you
provide the information that’s needed. Your field report should also define the nature
of your contribution, the setting of your observations, and the methods used to gather
your main data (4 Marks)
2. Conduct a field observation (Maximum 600 words).
• Explain how you have taken measurements and collected information from different
activities using different instruments.
• Demonstrate some simple analysis that you have done in your field work activities
(Remote students can follow and assume similar questions from the tutorial
questions).
• Provide and insert some photo evidence of the observed items. Remote students
should take screenshots from the fieldwork videos published on canvas. (7 Marks)
3. Summarize your findings (Maximum 300 words).
Explain what you have found and show that you understand the purpose of the survey
and field work activities. (4 Marks).
Special instructions for remote students:
• Remote students should write the report pretending they conducted the physical
fieldwork activities. The fieldwork videos on canvas are a significant resource to
substitute the physical fieldwork, for the purposes of this assignment.
• Mention that you’re a remote student in the final submission.
