Permanent GPS Stations - Monumentation - Short-braced Monument

The Short-braced Monument is of a high quality and provides for superior stability. The installation process is labor intensive and requires at least one to two days of time depending upon conditions such as rock type, site accessibility, and weather. This type of monument may be installed just about anywhere there is competent bedrock at or close (within ~1m) to the ground surface. The typical footprint requires about 4 square meters.
