2. The dimensions are measured from the line down the middle of the ship

3. How far is the widest point of the ship located away from the centreline?

4. Are the adjacent lengths of handrail at 90 degrees to each other?

5. These dimensions allow you to establish the position of the hole

5.2 Look at the extracts from technically discussion on a construction site. Complete the sentences using
the words in the box. Look at B opposite to help you.

1. According to this drawing, 8 runs along the external wall of the structure

2. The position were marked accurately- they were by our site engineer

3. The external wall runs along grid line I , and the internal corridor wall runs along grid line 2. So the
walls are with each other

4. I've marked a cross on the concrete floor, showing where the two gridlines.

5. We need to show the position of the corner of the staircase with coordinate dimensions. There should
be two dimensions,taken from two gridlines

5.3 Match the two parts of the sentences to complete the extracts from a training manual . Look at the
opposite A and B to help you.

In civil engineering, the following precautions can help to prevent costly setting-out mistakes
