Field Surveys & Site Dimensions
Field surveys and site dimensions are critical on restoration projects and often in new construction.
- Obtain dimensions, profiles & architectural details to match existing
- Site conditions determine depth requirements of new stone
- Site conditions identify constraints, notches, ‘fit around’ issues
- Structural backup conditions determine anchorage design
- Site conditions identify coordination issues with other materials
