Engineering Surveying Singapore Institute Of Surveyors And Valuers
Price: SGD 1,400

    Course details

    The Engineering Surveying Course enables participants to acquire knowledge in setting out data for road construction, determining earthwork quantities and measurements of precise vertical heights. Participants will also learn the different methods for topographic mapping and techniques for transferring azimuth and height datum in underground surveying.

    Note: The Engineering Surveying Course is one of the pre-requisites for entry to the SISV Cadastral Surveying Course. 

    COURSE CONTENTS

    The course contents cover various engineering aspects of surveying from a wide variety of applications found within the construction industry.

    The Lecture Topics include:

    • Precise Levelling
    • Topographic Mapping
    • Curve Setting
    • Earthwork Quantities
    • Construction Technology
    • Underground Surveying

    The Practical Topics include:

    • Precise Levelling Assignment
    • Mini Project on road construction survey
    • Construction Technology
    • Use of underground surveying equipment

    Participants undertaking the mini-project actually do a topographic map over an area, and then calculate and peg a circular road curve & vertical curve, and draw the relevant longitudinal and cross sections and learn about earthwork quantities. A precise leveling run is also done to give the participants an understanding of the accuracies achievable in establishing vertical heights. 

    The syllabus and structure are subject to revision without prior notice to reflect current changes in technique or technology. 

    ENTRY REQUIREMENTS

    • Minimum of 1 GCE "O" Level,
    • Candidates who have completed the SISV Basic Land Surveying Course, OR
    • Mature candidates employed in the Construction or Surveying industry may have to demonstrate by way of Interview and/or Field test to the LSCSC Panel, that they have acquired the necessary basic surveying skills. (Base on Case to Case Basis)

    About Singapore Institute Of Surveyors And Valuers

    The Institute comprises 3 divisions: the Land Surveyors, the Quantity Surveyors and the Valuation and General Practice Surveyors. The Land Surveyors play a crucial role in the proper erection of buildings, especially high-rise construction, and the accurate delineation and identification of vertical and horizontal interests in these buildings. The Quantity Surveyors are consulted on the economics of cost in the development or redevelopment process. The Valuers give advice on the values of interests in property upon which all real estate activities are based on. In addition, the Valuation and General Practice Surveyors also comprise real estate professionals dealing in marketing and agency, management and various forms of consultancy on real estate issues.
