I will, but my question is more aimed at what order of operation is most effect in this scenario? For instance, do I start on one side, achieve a perfect straight and plum run, then go 90 degrees to that wall and do the same and make sure this wall is squared to the first. I’m interested in how the pros do this. Or is it just trial and error.
It's been a few years, but hopefully I'm remembering correctly the few hundred Ive built.
In a nutshell..
Start by placing and straightening the bottom of a long wall. I used rebar or concrete stakes to pin the walls in place, on the inside of the wall, at the corners and throughout the middle section of the wall.
Square one of the adjacent end walls to the long side wall (3,4,5 method). Straighten the bottom of the wall and pin in place.
Then, measuring from the bottom of the first two walls, get your width and length distances to the 3rd and 4th walls. Hammer a few pins in the middle of the walls to keep the distance and walls fairly straight.
Next, do diagonal measurements (bottom of wall) to find square. Shift the last two walls until you find equal diagonals.
Recheck length and width measurements, adjust if necessary, recheck diagonals. Once you're good, pin all corners in place, straighten 3rd and 4th walls completely.
Check steps, loungers, etc for straight or correct angles.
Now you can finalize straightening with footing rebar, install brace stakes, plumb walls, level steps and loungers.
If you find that these measurements are not checking out after things are paralleled and squared (kinda ish), you may look to see if maybe one of the panels is misplaced
