Hi,

I am currently a site engineer, and have been for roughly around 9 years, working on different aspects from civil to houses, to surveying in canada,

I have always thought about a change in career, maybe still staying within construction or something else, I feel like a want to move away from site work, but at the same time if I know im in an office all day I know I want to be outside for a bit,

Does anyone have any sort of in-between jobs ? I only have basic autocad experience and dont want to go down the design/ PM roles, quantity surveying roles

Has anyone ever up skilled in stuff that bought them down a different path that they enjoyed ?

I have been completing Irish water as builts which i enjoy

Hi, just looking for a bit of advice

I recently got given a leica icon total station, I have been using an e - survey gps controller.

I want to set new control points using the total station.

I tried putting down nails then surveying the the points with the gps for 3 minutes, then going back to leica icon and doing a resection with the 3 nails, but the residuals are giving me out .200mm N/E then 6/7mm on the heights.

Main job is housing, pipework, kerbs, footpaths etc,

Any help will be greatly appreciated
