- A traverse is being measure by theodolite and subtense bar. At one station, the theodolite axis is 1.36m above the ground mark and the horizontal angle subtended by a 2- meter subtense bar placed at the second station is 40'28". The subtense bar is 1.23m above the ground mark, and the vertical angle measured to it on the theodolite is +22°14'. Determine the horizontal distance between the two station marks. Your answer15. Using a theodolite, a subtended angle of 22'40" was read on a 2-m subtense bar. What is the horizontal distance in meter from the theodolite to the bar?A pre-engineering baseline was run down a very steep hill (see Rather than measure horizontally downhill with the steel tape, the surveyor measures the vertical angle with a theodolite and the slope distance with steel tape. The vertical angle is -21° 26’ turned to a point on a plumbed range pole that is 4.88 ft above the ground. The slope distance from the theodolite to the point on the range pole is 148.61 ft. The theodolite’s optical center is 4.66 ft above the upper baseline station at 110 + 71.25. If the elevation of the upper station is 318.71. what is the elevation of the lower station? What is the horizontal distance between the two stations?
