A set out marks the perimeter of a building in relation to the boundaries. The marks/ pegs are "offset" or positioned away from the building line. These marks are used by subsequent trades as a starting point.
The set out is generally completed after the site scrape or excavation and before the plumber, electrician or concreter attends the site.
The site plan, ground floor and if applicable, sub-floor plan is a minimum prerequisite. If there is any slope on the site, elevation plans are required.
All sites require definition of the title boundaries. In an estate area, survey pegs are required in the corners of the land, which is documented by a subdivision. In an established area, a reestablishment survey is required, which documents the relationship between features on site (e.g.: fencing/ existing walls) and the title boundary.
The site should be cleared and excavated, if applicable.
