Improper Site Preparation and Building layout can cause<br />
unnecessary and costly mistakes.<br />
Contact a local contractor or your QuickStructures TM authorized dealer for assistance.<br />
Step 3<br />
SITE PREPARATION<br />
1. Start with a level site.<br />
2. Stake out the location of the<br />
corner posts A, B, C and D. Use<br />
an accepted method to make the<br />
layout straight and square.<br />
See Squaring A Building Layout<br />
on Page 29 for assistance.<br />
3. String a line from A to B and<br />
from C to D.<br />
4. With a measuring tape attached<br />
to stake A & C measure and<br />
stake the post intervals along the<br />
length of the building using a<br />
running measurement.<br />
Eg. 5' centers -5', 10', 15' etc.<br />
5. Check linear measurements by<br />
measuring the distance between<br />
each stake. Distance should be<br />
equal. Check the square of the<br />
foundation by measuring<br />
diagonally. Diagonal<br />
measurements should be equal.<br />
Continue to check the width and<br />
diagonal measurements the<br />
entire length of the building.<br />
NOTE: Buildings over 140' in length have more than one cover. Even with this feature,<br />
the building layout continues as a running measurement for the entire length of<br />
the building.<br />
