One practice that constitutes professional land surveying is performing a professional service to physically locate a monument. Another service a land surveyor would provide is locating existing property lines or showing where those lines should be based on the original surveys done. A third service a land surveyor can practice is surveying a property’s subdivision with the intent of combing properties. Another service a land surveyor can perform is construction layout, by laying out positions or elevations for the project. A fifth practice that constitute land surveying is conducting an investigation over a property rights dispute.

The illustration in #7.16, Trestle Work, Promontory Point, Salt Lake Valley by Andrew J.Russell is an image of a railroad track connecting two paths with men working on the site. Russell believed that the west was a great location to conduct his work because of the openness and freedom that was out there. Also to observe the natural scenery that it has to offer, which many have traveled to obtain such freedom and visual aspects of nature. As for #7.17, El Eaches or Three Brothers by Carleton E. Watkins is a description of a landscape winter forest by a lake, his purpose for this image was to capture the viewer's attention with the richness and the detail of the forest. For an individual to absorb the composition of the mountains in the picture

In 1861 there was a war that turned north against south family against family. After their war the created monuments that represent the brave leaders that fought for what the believe in. Now there is controversy over if the monuments should be destroyed. This has created a titanic fight between tow sides one side is for the monuments being destroyed and the other side dose not want it to be destroyed. I believe that the monuments should not be destroyed. I believe they should not be destroyed because we need to remember our history. Finally is that it will not stop the violence.
As the Director of LINC, I led the team that verified the accuracy of burial and headstone placement through inspection for each gravesite using the cemetery layout maps, historical burial records, and printout from the Burial Operations Support System (BOSS). In doing so guided my senior staff through conducting a grave-by-grave, 100% assessment of the entire cemetery. My challenge was to coordinate and record the correction of these sensitive discrepancies. The corrective measures required family notification, the disinterment, and re-interment of remains with burials dating back over 40 years for some. I worked to prevent a media incident that would cause widespread speculation and further damage the VA in the public forum.
If you are planning on building a landscaping bridge on any commercial land, it is a good idea to hire a civil engineer to help you. These are a few reasons why.
Clear identification of the location of construction and areas proposed to be disturbed and their relation to property lines, buildings, roads, and waterbodies within one hundred (100) feet.
Trench shoring and excavation services are undertaken thousands of times every day throughout the US. Trench box devices are often used to secure the work area by ensuring ground stability. Because of the risk of accidents in the work area, the trenching equipments must comply with the laws and regulations governing trenching and excavation activities. Trench Shoring Boxes is a leading player in the shoring industry. The company offers a range of safe and durable trench boxes made from steel and aluminum to ensure worker safety.

Desktop Surveys – This survey takes place before the site has been visited and before construction has begun which is during the very early stages of planning. The survey involves a number of different things like the internet, books, maps, geological maps and council offices which all play a part within the survey. A good starting point is to consult a number of large scale maps of the proposed site to check the site boundaries, building lines, existing buildings and other man-made, or natural, features which will affect the future buildings. A comparison with older maps may give some clues to determine former use and potential hazards that may arise.
An ALTA survey not only defines the borders of the property, it provides a wealth of other information that can protect you as a buyer. You'll be provided with details about locations of current buildings in relationship to the property boundaries and easements, owners of adjacent properties, evidence of encroachment onto the property, proof the property isn't encroaching on neighbors, record of land development, zoning classifications, road access, and access rights to utilities. Obtaining all this information requires a physical inspection of the property as well as research into the history of the land and construction activity.
When looking at the controversial argument over the importance of physical monuments and memorials it is important to consider the following, location, size, and the controversy these monuments bring up. The debate over the location, size, and what these statutes represent are all important in considering the long-term effects these monuments and memorials have on the world.
Have you ever wondered why there are huge statues and memorials all around the world? These are, in my opinion, one of the greatest things about this world. What great wonders do these huge towers, statues, and mountain carving sculptures do? They make civilizations realize what they went through and what people changed the world. They are used to make those who are important, known to man. The public is connected through these massive creations. Nations are made stronger with these simple memorials according to Savage in his article about the monument wars.. “Why?” you may ask, but the simple answer is always going to be, there wouldn’t be a nation without some of these men and women.
There are issues that arise when the engineer is working for the developer who is seizing property by eminent domain. The legal battle that may be going on at the time has an impact on the engineer since he has to work with the schedule being presented while everything is being done to seize the property. The engineer might have to design for two or three different scenarios depending on if they get the property or not and/or if the property they get has different dimensions than originally speculated. Also the engineer might be involved in the eminent domain procedure by using his expertise to provide concrete evidence to why they need this land and what for and also if its suitable or not for the project at hand. Also, the engineer might have to make calculations on whether it is more financially beneficial to go ahead and try to look at other places to build or if taking over the land to build is a better financial plan.
A monument's purpose is to commemorate a person or event that has had an influential or significant impact on a nation, or even the world. When memorializing something, certain factors need to be considered to have the structure or site "manufacture its own aura" (Source A). The size, materials used, and color of a monument are all important parts in creating a memorable experience for the visitors. Location and the way it works with the surrounding nature is another key factor when constructing a monument. Price is another element to consider. Finally, the message sent to the audience needs to be clear and powerful. The most important piece of building a monument is the emotional connection it creates with the audience. The impact that is
Throughout the process of showing clients houses, the agent discusses not many things about the property itself. Because the agent must be aware of the neighborhood the property is in, they often use their knowledge of the landscape to further convince clients as to why they should make the investment.

Such things as, the fireplace, pools, the size of the garage and even the gardens are discussed when overviewing the
