Mistakes in class on Saturday cost nothing and are a learning experience, but mistakes on Monday cost time, money and aggravation! Benefit from this course’s important inclusion of hands-on training that forges a connection between classroom materials to real world application. Students completing ABC Keystone’s Field Engineering course will walk away with practical skills that will be implemented immediately!
Gain confidence in layout work, learn the proper way to prepare field notes, and refresh basic math skills related to layout work. Gain experience in field labs with transits, levels, and lasers by setting grades from benchmarks, estimating new benchmarks, writing proper field notes, setting and turning angles, building layouts, and use basic math associated with construction layout and real work problems. Lab exercises will be outside and model real work conditions.
Participation numbers are limited.
This training can also be customized just for your company – your site or ABC Keystone!
