  • Page 12: Determining The Height Of Instrument (Hi)

    Determining the Height of Instrument (HI) The height of instrument (HI) is the elevation of the laser’s beam. The HI is determined by adding the grade-rod reading to a benchmark or known elevation. Set up the laser and place the grade rod on a job-site benchmark (BM) or known elevation. Slide the receiver up/down the grade rod until it shows an on-grade reading.
