FOR THE EXAMPLE SHOWN ABOVE:

Date Read:

Start at day zero to get initial survey shots on the risers attached to the plate when installed.

Fill Elev. At Riser:

Shoot the fill elevation adjacent to the riser pipe at time of reading.

Fill Height:

Difference between current fill elevation and original ground elevation; use top of plate as ground elev. if reasonable

Risers Added Today:

Standard pipe extensions are 3'-0" (see Standard RL-6) but installed length varies with couplers in place.

Measure length directly on the pipe, from top of old coupler to top of new coupler.

CHECK this length against a SAME-DAY difference in elevations before/after adding the new riser.

Risers Added To Date:

Sum the lengths of all riser pipes placed to date; = distance from top of plate to top of last riser.

Elev, Top of Riser:

It is recommended this always be read at the top of an attached coupler.

Today's Plate Elev:

This is the elevation of the current top of riser pipe minus the exact length of all risers to date.

Current Settlement:

Change in plate elevation from the previous reading.

Total Settlement:

Change in plate elevation from its original elevation at base of fill.

Remarks:

Note any damage, out-of-plumb, resetting, etc.
