How do you line up a measurement with a locate mark on a slab?
- Concrete
- Layout
- Accuracy
Orange paint on a slab means something under it you do not want to hit: rebar, a conduit run, a sleeve. Coring or drilling near one of those marks rests on a dimension you have to trust, and a blade laid flat on concrete drifts off line long before it reaches the target. The T1 Tomahawk projects a green line down the length of the blade, so the pull is visibly aimed at the mark rather than approximately at it. The dimension saves next to the mark it belongs to.
How the line finds the mark
- Green line runs the length of the blade
- T1 aims the pull at the mark, not near it
- Works to paint marks and scored lines
- No drift across an open slab
- T1 saves the dimension beside the mark
The video pulls the T1 across a concrete floor with the green line running out ahead of the blade, and walks it onto a spray-painted locate mark and a scored line in the slab. The laser does the aiming: the blade goes where the line already is, instead of the line being checked after the blade is down.
