A “building setting out survey” is a surveying process where the design of a building, as depicted on a plan, is physically marked out on the construction site, establishing the exact positions and levels of the building’s key features like walls, corners, and foundation lines, allowing construction crews to accurately build the structure according to the design; essentially, it’s the transfer of a building plan onto the ground for construction purposes.
