DESCRIPTION:Description\nSurveying reports (A.K.A. “surveys” ) are prepared for specific clients and convey specific information that the client will need to complete a specific task or transaction. Clients\, and sometimes various advisors and consultants\, tend to think “I have a survey. Now I’m ready to close this transaction\, plan\, evaluate\, design\, submit\, construct\, or a host of other things necessary to complete a project.” No survey will satisfy all of the possible needs of all readers. No survey will support all possible tasks.   \nEach of the client’s advisors and consultants need to evaluate the survey and determine if it contains the information necessary to accomplish their work in a competent and non-negligent manner. They each need to determine what transaction or activity the survey was prepared to support\, is this purpose consistent with the consultants need. They need to know what the magic words and “ketch phrases” mean and how they will impact the task at hand. \nThis webinar will look at some of the purposes that survey reports are designed to fill and what are some of the underlying purposes of the phrases and what do they mean. It will also explore the dangers of using a hammer to install a screw. \nThis webinar will be presented by Andrew Sikes PE\, RPLS. \nRegistration\n\nSpeaker\n \nAndrew Sikes PE\, RPLS is the President of Andrew Lonnie Sikes\, Inc.\, a regional surveying firm with offices in Katy\, Texas.
