    Fundamentals of Surveying: E.G. Escondo

    Here are the steps to solve the problems: 1. Determine the pace factor from the trials on the known distance AB: Pace factor = Mean distance / Mean number of paces = 45m / 52 paces = 0.865m/pace 2. Use the pace factor to determine the length of CD: Length of CD = Total number of paces x Pace factor = (771 + 770 + 768 + 770 + 772 + 769) x 0.865m/pace = 667m 3. Relative precision = (Taped length - Measured length) / Taped length x 100% = (667m - 667m) / 667m x

    PACING

    Pacing consists of counting the number of steps or paces in a required distance.

    A pace is defined as the length of a step in walking. It may be heel to heel or from
    toe to toe.

    In surveying, pacing means moving with measured steps; and if the steps are
    counted, distances can be determined if the length of a step is known.
    PACING

    Counting strides instead of paces is sometimes preferred by surveyors.

    A stride is equivalent to two paces or a double step.

    Because of its many practical applications, it is one of the most valuable things
    learned in surveying.

    ILLUSTRATIVE PROBLEMS

    1. Distance by Pacing. A 45-m course, AB, on level ground was placed by a surveyor
    for the purpose of determining his pace factor. The number of paces for each trial taken
    are shown in the accompanying tabulation.

    Requirements:
    a. Determine his pace factor.
    b. If the surveyor then took, 771, 770, 768, 770, 772, and 769 paces in walking an
    unknown distance CD, what is the length of the line?
    c. Assuming that the taped length of line CD is 667.0m, determine the relative
    precision of the measurement performed.

    ILLUSTRATIVE PROBLEMS

    2. DISTANCE BY PACING. In five trials of walking along a 90-m course on fairly level
    ground, a pacer for a survey party counted 51, 52.5, 51.5, 52.5, and 51.5 strides
    respectively. He then started walking an unknown distance XY in four trials which
    were recorded as follows: 88.5, 89, 88, and 87 strides. Determine the following:
    a. Pace factor of the pacer.
    b. Length of line XY.
