Instruction:
From any source of your liking, write a minimum of 2 paged paper describing a construction
case in which an error in surveying resulted in damages to the job (which may also include injury
to workers or any other faultiness in the resulting project outcome costing money or liability
issues, etc.). In your paper, you should report the solution or recommend solution(s) to the error
or problem identified. You are expected to be able to present this paper sometimes towards the
last class. You can be in groups to finish this work.
Part one: Identify the error(s) and write a rough draft of the paper highlighting the ideas that you
will be discussing in your final paper. This phase is to get your ideas straight and have an outline
of your paper before beginning the full writing process. This can be ½-1 page long and will be
10% of your midterm grade.
Part two: After getting your feedback and discussing it with me, you are to finalize the paper
and present it to the class. In your final submission, you must include a marked copy of your
initial submission (part one). This final piece will form your semester grade.
