laser grading
(OP)
We are cutting a ditch at a grade of 0.1% using a GRADALL and a rotating laser. Where is the absolute best position for the tripod mounted laser to insure optimum accuracy?
How do you deal with curves in the ditch? Any other basic information in this area would be helpful. thanks, rrw

RE: laser grading
If you are using a laser that you dial in a percent grade, I do not believe that will work for the curve. You could set it up flat, and figure the appropriate depth from the laser at specific intervals.
RE: laser grading
I'd keep the instrument far from your work area so it isn't influenced by machinery. If it's a laser-beacon, there won't be any significant error regardless if its close or further to the work, save the instrument and human-types.
I hope this helps.
