Basic Civil Engineering

Numerical Problems to be discussed


in surveying
Data from a differential leveling have been found in the order of B.S., F.S..... etc. starting with the initial
reading on B.M. (elevation 150.485 m) are as follows : 1.205, 1.860, 0.125, 1.915, 0.395, 2.615, 0.880,
1.760, 1.960, 0.920, 2.595, 0.915, 2.255, 0.515, 2.305, 1.170. The final reading closes on B.M.. Put the
data in a complete field note form and carry out reduction of level by Rise and Fall Method. All units are in
meters.
S B.S. - S F.S. = 11.720 - 11.670 = 0.05 m
S Rise - S Fall = 5.595 - 5.545 = 0.05 m

Complete the differential-level notes and determine the error of closure of the level circuit and adjust the
elevations of B.M.2 and B.M.3 assuming that the error is constant per set up.

B.M.1   3.455   101.225
Error of closure = 101.225 - 100 = + 1.225 m
There are ten (10) set up for the instrument. Thus for each set up, there is an error of 0.1225 m.
Therefore correction for each set up = - 0.1225 m
Adjusted elevation of B.M.2 = 95.125 - 4 x .1225 = 94.635 m
Adjusted elevation of B.M. 3 = 97.46 - 7 x .1225 = 96.603 m
Data from a differential leveling have been found in the order of B.S., F.S..... etc. starting with the initial reading on
B.M. (elevation 150.485 m) are as follows : 1.205, 1.860, 0.125, 1.915, 0.395, 2.615, 0.880, 1.760, 1.960, 0.920,
2.595, 0.915, 2.255, 0.515, 2.305, 1.170. The final reading closes on B.M.. Put the data in a complete field note form
and carry out reduction of level by Rise and Fall method. All units are in meters.
