Examples of how Sitemaster 3 will start making
you money
Example..... first, a measured survey
comparison
Assuming that many projects involve extensions, or existing
buildings :-
1) 2 technicians, using a laser based measuring tool or a tape,
take measurements on-site, drawing the building by hand, on a pad,
with a pencil.
2) Back at the office these hand drawn sketches have to be transfered
onto the CAD system by the CAD operator
Normally if it takes 1 day to measure a property then it will
take 1 day to draw it, back at the office.
Compare it to what can be achieved now :-
1) A technician takes measurements on-site, - the intelligent
Sitemaster 3 Survey System converts these measurements into a completed
DWG AutoCAD drawing.
The drawing is done ON SITE
Thats it ! - The building is measured, drawn and e-mailed back to
the office in one process.
From - Disto to Drawing - using the capabilities of the Flybook
or a PDA Phone, the drawings can be emailed back to the office FROM
SITE!
POINT....SHOOT....DONE
More examples of what Sitemaster
excels at......
Example.... Start from scratch...
Sitemaster has been designed with this as its initial aim.
Walk into a building and get measuring... feed the dimensions
and direction into Sitemaster from the Disto via Bluetooth and your
drawing !!!.... keep measuring...keep drawing.
Position doors into walls as you normally would, measuring from
the nearest corner, work through Sitemasters dialogue box's for
the relevant dimensions and it draws in the detail of the door with
the swing and breaking the wall and drawing the wall thickness and
the frame and also in the PRO version adding all the attributes
of the door opening as exportable text. (see samples below) Place
all other objects in a similar manner ... windows, openings, radiators,
niches, chimney breasts where necessary Sitemaster has easy to use
dialogue box's to make the job as easy and as efficient as possible.
When you're done, save the drawing in Sitemasters native .flx
format or as a dxf or a dwg( also dwf and wmf available).
Example..... checking an existing dwg
drawing...
Load the drawing onto the Flybook or PDA... take it to site...
use Sitemaster 3 to check the actual measurements against the CAD
measurements.
Example.... drawing ammendments...
Add to the existing drawing using Sitemasters Wall, Column,
Opening, Room and Symbol commands (yes is has all the usual CAD
drawing and editting tools)
Example data
collection....

Measurements can be done using the Lazer measuring device or
input manually... the direction drawn is done using Sitemaster
Any angle can be drawn with Sitemaster as it has specialized
Triangulation commands that allow measurements to be taken from
ANY 2 points to a third point again this is usually done using the
Lazer measuring device for ultimate accuracy.

Adding door and window details.....

is done through dialogue box's....

2 Dialogue box's and you get door, swing, opening, frame (Classic
version pictured)
Example data collection.....
In the Sitemaster PRO version you also enter the doors height
and also have the option to place text attribute information for
the door details, a comment option, which room it is assigned to
and the door number is done automatically. All this data can be
lifted from the drawing and exported in an Excel CSV format. This
is also true for Windows, Radiators, Symbols, Room data..... see
below
