A rectangular building 250.00 m by 130.00 m is to be laid out using a 30-m steel tape having a cross sectional area of 0.05 cm2 under a steady pull of 10 kg and at a mean temperature of 32oC. Under standardization the 30-m steel tape supported at its full length is 0.010 m too short at a standard pull of 6 kg with a weight of 1.20 kg with E = 2.0 x 106 kg/cm2 and a thermal coefficient of 0.0000116/oC at standard temperature of 20oC. Correction for the length and width of the building due to incorrect length. b) Correction for the length and width of the building due to temperature. c) Correction for the length and width of the building due to tension. d) Correction for the length and width of the building due to sag. e) Total Correction f) Adjusted length and width of the building. g) The needed tension to be applied to the tape to eliminate the error due to sag.
