As per title, is there an easy way to measure the height and level of the 4 corners (or other places) at the top, or other heights of a building? I know there are some laser devices but am not sure which one to buy.
I have just remembered the guys building foundations, they had a laser device on a tripod and a very long ruler and they would put the ruler vertically over a surface and at some distance away the laser device would beep, they used it to level the foundations across 20 metres or so. Is this the kind of device I need?
FFS. Read the posts above before building your 3m raised platform.But if you want horizontal lines at say 2m or 3m you need to build a raised platform.
I went ahead and bought a laser thingy, https://www.amazon.co.uk/Self-Leveling-Highlight-Vertical-Horizontal-Outdoor/dp/B07FTC8CTF
It projects 2 vertical lines at 90 degrees and one horizontal line and it self levels.
It is not easily visible outdoors and it is very sunny today so will wait for a bit later.
Unfortunately the horizontal line is not height adjustable and you need to move the whole device up-down - so it is OK for use on a tripod at about 160cm off the ground (as far as tripods go). But if you want horizontal lines at say 2m or 3m you need to build a raised platform.
What the hell is going on inside your head?But the top of the wall is 2.7m and I need to climb on ladder to reach the top and measure down to the "datum".
