Coordinate Geometry of Survey

Coordinate geometry (COGO) is a method of inserting surveying or engineering data into geographic information system (GIS), computer-aided design (CAD), or mapping software. These data can be collected on the proposed construction site using standard surveying techniques and instrumentation or may be taken from existing maps, engineering plans, drawings, or records. Data gathered on the site includes coordinates of points, bearings, and distances between points. The data are noticed and noted through conventional surveying procedures, like a traverse or layout measurement series and it can be either digital or non-digital. The maps and plans are inclusive of boundaries, divisions, and other components, and these features are shown with coordinate values, the lengths, offset distance, and bearings between them.

(2d) To complement the new rail-project described in question 2a above, the city public-works department has also engaged your design-&-construct company to complete the work necessary for upgrading-repair to a small stretch of an existing city ring-road, to allow better access to an outlying train-station. You are assigned by the project manager of this road repair project, to lead a team of 5 workers. You are expected to finish all repair work within 15 days, and have been asked by your project manager what you will do to complete the project within the stipulated time. Discuss the measures required to achieve your manager's deadline, in terms of: your definition of quality in this project and what should be included in the quality management plan here; the procedures required for this project development process: what is to be included in your scope-of-works document, your leadership role as it relates to the company's quality policy towards the successful completion of the…

Question 2 As a Project Engineering had been tasked to make an analysis and to recommend to your company on the economic justification on option to purchase a used 250MT mobile crane. The decision is in between Brand X or Brand Y 250 MT mobile crane to be used for the company’s project construction activities as well as providing some rental business for three years. As the crane is not used for the whole time, 10-days a month it is being rented out. The Brand X is the newer crane which having better fuel efficiency and lower maintenance cost. Based on your data gathering, you have this information derived for the analysis. (Refer to the picture attached) a) Based on Return of Investment (ROI) evaluation, which unit will you recommend to your management to be purchased and why? b) From Life Cycle Cost (LCC) Analysis, would you Brand X or Brand Y crane? What is your recommendation and why? c) Based on the Minimum Acceptable Rate of Return (MARR), if the company hurdle rate is 20 %,…
