THIRD SEMESTER B.TECH DEGREE EXAMINATION(S), MAY 2019

Course Code: CE207
Course Name: SURVEYING

PARTA
Answer any two full questions, each carries 15 marks.

Define local attraction. Which are the different methods of eliminating local
attraction in a closed traverse?
The following consecutive readings were taken with a level and 5m levelling
staff on a continuously slopping ground at a common interval of 20 m, :0.385,
1.030,1.925,2.825,3.730,4.685,0.625,2.005,3.110,4.485. Prepare a page of field
book and calculate the reduced level of points if first reading was taken on a
bench mark of RL 208.125 m.
Define bearing. Which are the different systems of designating bearings?
Distinguish between dip and declination, isogonic and agonic lines.
The magnetic bearing of a line AB is 5 281301. Find the true bearing if
declination is 7°30’ W
Explain the different methods of orientation in plane table survey.
Define contour. Which are the different methods of locating contour?
PART ‏تا‎

Answer any two full questions, each carries 15 marks.
Explain repetition method of measurement of horizontal angle.
Two triangulation stations A and B are 60 km apart and have elevation 240 m
and 280 m respectively. Find minimum height of signal required at B so that line
of sight may not pass near the ground than 2 m. The intervening ground has an
elevation of 200 m.
