Stakeout Using Horizontal Offset
The most common method for
staking out roads, pavement, curb &
gutter etc. is to use a horizontal
offset from the actual point. For
instance, a four foot offset from
finished back of curb (BC) is
commonly used to provide cut/fill
stakes for a street and curb lines.
Preparing for the example
In this section of the manual, a
sample project will be used to
demonstrate the procedures to follow
for staking a portion of the job. The
project consists of a
3 m wide paved bicycle path with a
curve. The project will be staked on a
0.6 m offset from the edge of
pavement. The POB and PC will be
staked for both sides. This project also uses a simple
template. The project is designed to
illustrate the application of the
"ROAD+" Program . It is not intended
to provide a demonstration of road
design procedures.
