This paper presents the method of close range photogrammetry used in excavated
volume estimation. The purpose of introducing close range photogrammetry
method in excavated volume estimation is to increase efficiencies of the
estimation processes as well as the reliability of the result. A study is to be done in
laboratory to investigate the applicability of the photogrammetry in estimating the
excavated volume of soil or rock slope using a physical model. The physical
model assembles the actual slope condition. Photogrammetry procedures were set
up to determine the volume of the excavated materials. Then, a simple verification
test is done to verify the result using close-range photogrammetry. Comparison
between close-range photogrammetry and conventional methods will also be
discussed to prove that close-range photogrammetry can be used as one of the
reliable methods in estimation of excavated materials.

LITERATURE REVIEW
2.1 Introduction
Surveyors are often called upon to measure the volumes of earthwork and
rock mass for various types of construction projects. Conventional volume measuring
methods are often tedious and time-consuming. The field works involve running
preliminary center lines, getting cross-sectional data and making slope-stake and
other measurements on long route surveys.
Once the mass for excavation have been identified, a few control points
surrounding the slope are the employed to provide the data with a reference. This can
be done by commencing traverse survey. It is important to maintain good accuracy of
work at this stage because subsequent surveying works rely on this step. The types of
traverse survey ,open or close traverse, depend on the condition of the slope that are
to be measured. Both open and close traverse are shown in Figure 2.1 and Figure 2.2.

Conventional data collection for rock volume usually employs the method
first method to provide necessary information of the slope. This is because the
irregular surface of the rock makes it difficult for survey team to take random points
at different height.

In this method, a team of field party will set out on a tacheometric effort to
acquire data comprising of height and distance of various spot on proposed rock
mass. Total station application is important to provide accurate and a set of large data.
The fieldwork data will be plotted onto a graph and then contour lines will be drawn
to provide various layers of mass with the similar height. By calculating the area
between two contour line, the volume of each layer can be identified. Thus, summing
the volume of each layer, an overall estimation of the rock mass may be known.
