In testing a dumpy level, the following records were noted while undertaking reciprocal levelling Instrument at A B :

Reading at A 1.725 1.560 B 1.370 1.235

is the line of collimation in adjustment ? What should be the correct staff reading at A, during the second setup to make the line of collimation truly horizontal find the amount of collimation error also. (c) [6]

How do you estimate the volume storage capacity of a reservoir behind a dam ? [4]

(a)

State different errors eliminated by measuring the horizontal angle by repetition. [4]

(b)

The following observations were taken from station P & Q : Line PA PQ QB Length (m) 125.0 200.0 150.5 Bearings S 60 30' W N 30 30' E N 50 15' W

Calculate the length and bearing of AB and also the angle PAB and [4162]-108
