Deals with the different stages of the setting out work, i.e. the measuring of the primary framework (traverses, grids, etc.) on the site, the setting out of reference lines (baselines), the transfer (plumbing up) of reference lines to other floors, the setting out of position points and the levelling procedure for these different stages. Gives values for permissible deviations when measuring and setting out and recommends certain procedures and instruments to be used.
