Before building a house, we need to have the surveyor, architect, site engineer or a contractor,a surveyor is a person who surveys the land , so that he or she could know the actually square meter of the land, after surveying, the architect comes in, the surveyor hands over the survey plan to the architect, so that he could places a proposed building on it base on the client needs or wants.
The site engineer or contractor is a person who make the drawing become a reel life story,this is by setting out the building into an open area which was cleared, and the have removed tress, and rocks or stone from the land, the grasses are being cut off and the ground is free.
โขRope and pecks is being used in setting out the building line.
