Sheet 2

Question (1)

A- Classify the levelling instrument accuracy, then explain the component and applications? Explain with
drawing
B- Define:
Datum line - Reduced level - Contour line - Turning point – back sight – fore sight – intermediate sight.
C- Compare between surface level and (rise and fall) method?
D- What are the levelling errors, causes and how can prevent it?

Question (1)

Following staff readings were taken with a level. The instrument having been shifted after the 4th, 7th and 10th
reading, R.L. of the starting B.M. is 100.00 m. enter the reading in the form of a level book page. Find the R.L.
of stations and apply usual checks. 2.665, 3.745, 3.830, 2.275, 2.645, 0.385, 0.960, 1.640, 2.845, 3.845, 2.680
and 3.265

Question (1)

Q2: The following consecutive readings were taken with a level and a 4 m staff on a continuously sloping
ground at a common interval of 30 m. 0.780; 1.535; 1.955; 2.430; 2.985; 3.480; 1.155; 1.960; 2.365; 3.640;
0.935; 1.045; 1.630 and 2.545. The reduced level of the last point A was 218.750 m. Rule out a page of a level
book and enters the above readings. Calculate the reduced levels of the points by the collimation method and
rise and fall method. Also, calculate the gradient of the slope.

Question (1)

Q3: Data from a differential leveling have been found in the order of B.S., F.S..... etc. starting with the initial
reading on B.MA. (Elevation 150.485 m) are as follows: 1.200, 1.865, 0.120, 1.920, 0.395, 2.615, 0.880, 1.765,
1.960, 0.925, 2.595, 0.915, 2.255, 0.515, 2.305, and 1.175. The final reading is on B.MA... Put the data in a
complete field note form and carry out reduction of level by Height of instrument method. If the third point is a
new B.M. calculate its R.L if the distance between points is 200 m.
