Le laager étendu est normalement formé de jour, principalement pour réduire la vulnérabilité à l'observation et à l'action ennemies(aéronefs et chars). Le terrain doit être assez dégagé, offrir une bonne visibilité, une bonne dispersion et de bons champs de tir afin d’assurer la défense tous azimuts. Les troupes se dispersent en exploitant le couvert disponible.
