Instruments for Surveying

Surveying is the practice that determines the relative three-dimensional positions of many different points on the earth’s surface. There are various instruments used in Surveying like Theodolites, Total station, Tripod stands, Plane table, etc. for measuring horizontal angle, vertical and sloping angle, which are very useful for giving accurate and precise measurement.

can you pls help me understand how this is solve.. Topic: Tape corrections (fundamentals surveying) •Pls answer with Complete Solution • 3 decimal places ALL answer 2. A 50m tape of standardized length has a weight of 0.05kg/m, with a cross sectional area of 0.04 sq.cm. It has an E of 2.10x10^6 kg/sq.cm. The tape is of standardized length under a pull of 5.5kg when supported throughout its length and a temp. of 20degC. This tape was to measure a distance between A and B and was recorded to be 458.65m. At the time of measurement, the pull applied was 8kg with the tape supported only at its end points and the temp. observed was 18degC. Assuming a (in greek alpha) of the tape is 0.0000116/degC. Compute the true length of the measured line AB due to combined effects of temperature, tension and sag. Thank you. I'll give your answer a LIKE for helping me.

Do not copy the answer here in bartleby. Give clear solutions UPVOTE WILL BE GIVEN. Please write the complete solutions and box the final answer. Use 2 decimal places.

The solutions and answers should have minimum of 3 decimals for linear measurements and should be in Degree-Minute-Seconds (2 decimals for seconds) for angular measurement, if not whole number. An engineer is tasked to measure a whole line multiple time. Since the length of the line is significantly longer than the steel tape, the engineer decided to measure the line in three segments. First, the engineer measures a 50m known line using the steel tape and find out that the tape is too long with the observation having only 49.2m. With these values, the correction factor of ???? = 50? − 49.2?. After determining such corrections for future calibration, the engineer measured each segments. The following are the observations: 1st Segment: 46.2m, 46.3m, 46.5m; 2nd Segment: 48.3m, 48.2m, 48.1m; 3rd Segment: 32.3m, 32.6m, 32.4m. Determine the complete expression of the most probable value (together with probable error) of the line.

A surveying instructor sent out five groups of students to measure a distance between two points marked on the ground. The students came up with the following measurement values: 100.81m, 100.62m, 100.73m, 100.76m, and 100.69m. Assuming these values are equally reliable and that variations result from accidental errors, determine the most probable value of the distance measurement.
