Construction Staking and Layout

Meridian’s licensed surveyors provide staking of critical property alignments, curb and gutter, grade staking, right of way lines, and mapping of utility locations as well as grid lines for building layout. We also determine and locate section corners and re-established section corners on any size project including large scale master planned developments. A superior level of accuracy occurs in defining parameters because of our required in-house QA/QC process. Once accomplished, we provide a cut sheet of the field data to the site superintendent. Contractors can rely on this data, our expertise and our ability to find solutions to these layout challenges at every job site.

Here are some benefits for choosing Meridian’s Construction Staking crew:

  • Crews have an eye out for potential hazards such as loose debris, sharp objects, or uneven terrain while operating surveyor equipment at job sites.
  • Working safely with a hard hat, high visibility vests, eye protection, gloves and durable footwear is a top priority for Meridian Staking Crews
  • Data compatible with current design platforms such as and photogrammetric processing software as well AutoCAD and Bentley products.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is construction staking?

Meridian’s surveyors provide staking of critical elements for the layout of projects. Before any work is done on site, we set up a control network for the project and ensure that it is verified and provided to the contractor so that reference points can be more easily visualized at the site from the civil design construction documents. We provide layout for utilities, curb and gutter, grade staking, as well as grid lines for building layout. We also complete all the calculations in house and have a QA/QC process to ensure projects are laid out correctly the first time. Once accomplished, we provide a cut sheet of the field data to the site superintendent team to ensure an understanding of the defined perimeters and they can contact us with any questions or concerns before anything is built.

How are construction staking surveys used?

Land developers and contractors hire surveying companies to complete a construction layout survey as part of the building process. This ensures structures are built where the plans dictate and within property lines.

At Meridian Engineering, our team of professionals provides accurate, on-site construction staking surveys for developers, contractors, and industrial companies. Using our expertise and precise skills, we use our equipment to get the survey done quickly and provide you with an accurate construction layout. All reference points are clearly marked, and our clients are given accurate survey information.
