SURVEYING
Civil Engineering survey is based on measuring, recording and drawing to scale the physical features on the surface of the earth. For different survey sites, different tools and survey equipment is used. The surveyor uses instruments for measuring, a field book for recording and nowadays surveying softwares for plotting and drawing to scale the site features
In civil engineering survey the survey engineers perform various measurements to do professional surveing. The surveying Leveling techniques are aided by instruments as theodolite, Level, tripods, tapes, chains, telescopes etc and then the surveying engineer drafts a report on the proceedings. Curvature and Refraction occur due to.....

Compound CurvesErrors in Surveying & Levelling [Read More]Combination of two or more simple circular curves of different radius having their curvature in the same direction. Essentially, a compound curve consists of two curves that are joined at a point of tangency and are located on the same side of a common tangent.

Maintenance of Surveying EquipmentApplications of Surveying in CareerSurveying equipment is being used under most stressful conditions. The equipment is exposed to extreme weather conditions, used in dusty construction areas and is subject to bumpy transportation. Proper care in the method by which equipment is used, stored, transported, and adjusted is a major factor in the successful completion of the survey.
The basic principles of surveying have changed little over the ages, but the tools used by surveyors have evolved tremendously. Engineering, especial civil engineering depends heavily on surveyors. When ever there are roads, railways, reservoir, dams, retaining walls, bridges, or residential area to be built, surveyors are involved.
