The present disclosure relates to a method and system for forming and laying out a substantially perfect ninety degree angle that is used to form the corner of a construction footprint.

The adjustable batter board may comprise a first clamp, a second clamp, a hook, and a position adjuster. The adjustable batter board may removably couple to a horizontal crosspiece of a batter board via the first clamp and the second clamp. A string line may be removably coupled to the hook. As a non-limiting example, the string line may designate a layout line of a construction project. The position adjuster may be operable to move the hook laterally in order to position the string line. A plurality of jam nuts may be operable to lock the hook into position.

A construction system for establishing alignment of a plurality of masonry building units is provided. The system includes a base having a base plate, a vertical extension extending vertically from the base plate, the vertical extension having a first hole through the vertical extension, and a leveling mechanism that adjusts an orientation of the base plate relative to a surface on which the base is located; a first pole removably attached to the vertical extension, the first pole having a first end, a second end, and a first hole through the first pole proximate to the first end; and a first pin removably attaching the first pole to the vertical extension, the first pin being located in the first hole of the vertical extension and the first hole of the first pole.

A string line bracket system for assessing linearity of a beam of a container. The string line bracket system including a body configured to attach to at least a portion of the beam of the container, and at least one string line member extending above an end of the body such that when a string having a length is attached to the at least one string line member, the length of the string is positionable along a side of the beam of the container.

The present application relates to an adjusting device (1) for adjusting a masonry guide (20) relative to a brick wall to be laid (11), comprising an elongate adjusting body (2), wherein the adjusting device is releasably attachable to both the wall and the masonry guide, and the adjusting device comprises a hinge (3) for rotating at least a part of the adjusting body out of the plane running parallel to the wall when the adjusting device is connected only to the wall.

An apparatus is disclosed for securing a tube of uniform cross section to a brickwork corner to serve as a profile. The apparatus comprises at least one collar for sliding onto the tube to define fixed reference surfaces to contact the two faces of the corner and to define adjustable abutments for contacting the two faces of the corner at a distance from the reference surfaces to permit adjustment of the attitude of the tube in two orthogonal planes, and a tensioning arrangement for applying a force directly or indirectly to the tube to urge the reference surfaces and the adjustable abutments into contact with the two faces of the corner.

The present disclosure relates to a system and method useful for construction layouts requiring ninety-degree angles such as in a corner of a construction footprint.
