WHY BUILDERS ACROSS UTAH & IDAHO TRUST CMT

• Licensed survey crews arrive with GNSS, robotic total stations, and UAV photogrammetry.
• We mobilize fast: a crew is on-site within 24 hours for urgent cut-and-fill or layout work.
• Our field-to-office workflow syncs design changes and re-stakes the same day.
• Our 40-year track record proves accuracy on DOT, DoD, commercial, and residential projects.

COMPLETE STAKING SERVICES CAPABILITIES

Vertical & Horizontal Control
Because control networks anchor the project, we set primary points that resist drift for its entire duration.

Structure Layout
We place corners, grid lines, and anchor bolts to ± 1/8 inch, so trades start on grade, not on guesswork.

Roadway & Heavy-Civil Staking
Likewise, centerlines, slope stakes, and utility offsets keep earthwork and paving correct the first time.

Machine-Control Terrain Models
Consequently, GPS-guided graders and excavators cut rough-grade cycles by up to 30%.

WORKFLOW: FROM BIM TO BENCHMARK

1. Send IFC or CAD drawings to a CMT Surveyor.
2. We draft a staking plan and verify control with your design team.
3. Crews set stakes and upload as-built data to the cloud before leaving site.
4. You receive georeferenced PDF & CSV files for your records.

HOW SURVEYING HELPS BUILD ROADS

Surveying is the first step before the building of the road begins. This first survey is done in the planning stage. During the construction phase, another survey is done. This survey will determine how much dirt must be moved. It also provides the grade and level the dirt must be at. The survey information will help determine the best location where the least amount of dirt must be moved. 

Construction phase surveys tell us the optimum areas for the following: 

• Slopes and contours 
• Turns 
• Tunnels in mountainous areas 
• Bridges 

Maintenance and rehabilitation phase surveys is used for positioning.

CONSTRUCTION STAKING

• All projects benefit from accurate construction staking services

General 

• Construction staking is more commonly known as site layout survey

Structures 

• Structures ranging from small utility boxes, to residential homes, to large multi-story commercial buildings, and parking structures

Development 

• All aspects of residential and commercial development, including property boundaries, earthwork, utilities, pavement, and structures

Field Engineering 

• On–site engineering with office support to allow for fast and efficient changes required during the construction process
• Roadway, bridge, and heavy civil utility and earthwork 
• Heavy civil, utilities, earthwork, and all other aspects for both private and public roadways and bridges
• Machine control terrain model 
• Creation for contractor grading equipment. Creation of digital terrain models (DTM) for use in contractor grading equipment
