The locating template (130) has a crosshair (20) or series of marks (112) indicating the center of the locating template (130), which corresponds to the center of the channel defined by the insert assembly (120). The contractor simply marks the outer surface of the outer tube (110) at two or more locations aligned with the crosshair (20) or marks (112) on the locating template (130).

The column can then be poured in the usual manner.
