Tacheometric surveying is a method of rapidly determining horizontal and vertical positions of points using optical measurements rather than traditional tape or chain measurements. A tacheometer, which is a transit theodolite fitted with a stadia diaphragm, is used to measure the horizontal and vertical angles to a stadia rod or staff held at survey points. Formulas involving the stadia interval, staff intercept readings, and calculated constants are used to determine horizontal distances and elevations from the instrument to points. Measurements can be taken with horizontal lines of sight or inclined lines of sight when the staff is held vertically or normal to the line of sight.

Fly Levelling
Fly leveling: -Fly leveling is just like differential leveling carried
out to check the accuracy of leveling work. It is a very approximate
form of leveling in which sights are taken as large as possible. in this
method, a line of levels is run to determine approximately reduced
levels of the points carried out with more rapidly and less precision
The aim of fly Levelling: The main purpose of this type of leveling is
to check the values of the reduced levels of the bench marks already
fixed. In this method only back sight and foresight are taken. There is no need of intermediate sights. However great care has to be taken for selecting the change points (Turning Points) and for taking reading on the change points because the accuracy of leveling depends upon these

1. Contours are imaginary lines on a map that connect points of equal elevation. Contour maps show these lines, representing the topography of the land.
2. There are two main methods for creating contour maps - direct and indirect. The direct method involves precisely surveying points along contour lines in the field. The indirect method takes spot elevations across an area and interpolates the contour lines.
3. Common indirect techniques include surveying on a grid, along cross-sections, or using a tacheometer to measure multiple points from instrument stations. Spot elevations are plotted and contour lines drawn in between based on the terrain. The indirect method is faster but less precise than the direct method.

1. There are two primary divisions of surveying: plane surveying which treats the earth's surface as flat, and geodetic surveying which takes the curvature of the earth into account over large areas greater than 1000 km^2.
2. Surveying can be classified based on its function or the instruments used. Common classification based on function includes land, city, and route surveys. Classification based on instruments includes chain, compass, plane table, leveling, and photogrammetric surveys.
3. Chain surveying involves measuring the sides of a network of triangles to map an area without taking angular measurements. It is suitable for small, level, and open areas but not for large, undulating

Assignment of engineering economics by Bishnu BhandariBishnuBhandari12
1. Economics deals with how societies use scarce resources to produce and distribute goods and services. Engineering economics applies economic principles to engineering decision-making.
2. Microeconomics studies individual units like consumers and firms, while macroeconomics looks at aggregates like overall output and unemployment. The key difference is the level of analysis - micro looks at small economic units, macro looks at whole economies.
3. The scope of economics includes the study of economic activities and factors of production, the determination of incomes and prices, and the analysis of individual and aggregate behavior. Economics aims to understand both how the economy works and how to improve economic outcomes.

Rail transport is one of the important modes of transport in India. Now a days we
see that there are railways that are present for the long as well as short distance
travelling which makes the life of the people easier. When compared to other
means of transport, a railway is the cheapest means of transport. The maintenance
of the railway database also plays a major role in the smooth running of this
system. The Online Train Ticket Management System will help in reserving the
tickets of the railways to travel from a particular source to the destination.

1.1.3 Topography and Geology:
NepalElectricityAuthority(NEA),Kharipatiislocated in the eastern part of Kathmandu valley, It lies
in Bhaktapur districts of Nepal. At the time of the 2011 Nepal census Kharipati had a
population of 8,129 with 1,817 houses in it. It is situated at about a distance of 18 kilometers
from the capital city Kathmandu.
Kharipati has gentle and steep topography differing from places to places. The area contains
ground features ranging from steep slopes to flat grounds. These features were shown by
contours. The geological structure is in good condition, so there is no any geological disasters
and eruption. Soil types are found similar to any other part of Bhaktapur i.e. soft clay, irrigated
by river and well suitable for cultivation.
Especially the low land below the NEA boundary is found to be good for the agricultural
product. The area contains ground features ranging from step slopes to almost flat grounds.
These features were shown by contours. The area also shows a variation in the elevation.
The latitude and longitude of Nepal is as following:
Latitude = 26°22' N to 30°27'
Longitude = 80°04' E to 88°12'
The latitude and longitude of NEA Training Center (Kharipati) is as follow:
Latitude = 27°41'16" N
Longitude = 85°27'20" E
Temperature = Normal
1.1.4 Rainfall, Climate and Vegetation:
The weather is moderate between autumn seasons. During the camp period temperature was
fluctuating from maximum to minimum of it just similar to the annual temperature variation
and rain fall around Kathmandu valley is:-
Temperature: maximum 25o
C to minimum 9o
C. The atmosphere was cool in the morning with
high value of humidity. Most of the empty spaces of the project area were full of vegetation
but without cultivated land except for some land around canteen area. Ordinary grassland
covered most of the areas. Presence of few plants, trees and bushes made environment green
and pleasant.

1.2 Introduction
1.2.1 Surveying:
Surveying is defined as the science and technique of determining three dimensional position of
point on above or beneath the surface of the earth by means of angular and
linear measurements. The application of surveying requires skills as well as knowledge of
mathematics, physics, to some extent, astronomy.
The knowledge of surveying is advantageous to many phase of engineering. The earliest
surveys were made in connection with the land surveying. Surveying is the most essential
subject matter before and during all engineering works like civil engineering works such as
designing and construction of highways, water supply systems, irrigation projects, buildings
etc. Land area surveys are made to determine the relative horizontal and vertical position of
topographic features and to establish reference mark to guide construction. In surveying, all
measurement of lengths is horizontal, or else is subsequently reduce to horizontal distance. The
object of survey is to prepare plan or map so that it may represent the area on a horizontal
plane. Vertical distances between the points are shown on map by contour lines and are usually
represented by means of vertical sections drawn separately. A plan or map is
horizontal projection of an area and show only horizontal distance of the points.
The main objectives of surveying courses allocated for civil engineering students is to promote
them the basic knowledge of different surveying techniques relevant to civil engineering works
in their professional practice. The completion of all surveying courses including one week
survey camp work organized by Madan Ashrit Memorial Technical School and will give better
enhancement to students to use all surveying technique covered in lecture classes.
This is a detail report of the works, which were performed by Group B, have seven members,
during the camp period. Briefly explains of the working procedures and technique used by this
group during that camp period. In addition, it also contain observations, calculations, methods
of adjustment of error, main problem during work and their solution, results of all calculations
and their assessments withsomecommentsispresentedinaconciseform:-
In our survey camp, the type of survey that we performed is engineering survey which
includes the preparation of topographic map, in which both horizontal and vertical
controls are necessary. As per instrument used form theodolite traverse survey for fixing
control points, tachometric (Instrument either Total Station or Theodolite) survey for
detailing and triangulation survey for establishing control points in bridge site survey.
1.2.2 Principle of Surveying
The fundamental principles of plane surveying are:
Working from whole to part:
It is veryessential to establish first a system of control points with higher precision. Minor control points can
then be established by less precise method and details can then be located using minor control
points by running minor traverse. This principle is applied to prevent the accumulation of error
and to control and localize minor error.
Location of point by measurement from two points of reference:
5. 5
Survey Camp Report 2017-Nov-29 to Dec-05 Prepared by:- Bishnu Pd. Bhandari
The relative position of points to be surveyed should be located by measurement from at least
two (preferably three) points of reference, the position of which have already been fixed.
Consistency of work:
The survey work should performed by keeping consistency in method, instrument, observer
etc. to get desired level of accuracy.
Independent check:
Everymeasurementtakeninthefieldmustbechecked by some independent field observation so that
the mistake is not passed unnoticely.
Accuracy required:
Proper method and proper instrument should be used depending upon amount of accuracy
required. Accuracy of angular and linear values should be compatible.
Thus, in our survey camp, survey work is performed by considering the above
fundamental principle of surveying.
1.2.3 Defination of Terms:
1. Bench mark:
A survey mark made on a monument having a known location and elevation, serving as a
reference point for surveying.
2. Traversing:
A traverse may be defined as the course taken measuring a connected series of straight
lines, each joining two points on the ground; these points are called traverse stations.
3. Levelling:
Leveling is the branch of surveying, which is used to find the elevation of given points
with respect to given or assumed datum to establish points at a given elevation or at
different elevations with respect to a given or assumed datum.
4. Contouring:
Contour lines are imaginary lines exposing the ground features and joining the points of
equal elevations.
5. Transition curve:
A transition curve is a curve of varying radius introduced between a straight line and a
circular curve.
6. Triangulation:
The process of determining the location of a point by measuring angles to it from known
points at either end of a fixed baseline, rather than measuring distances to the point
directly.
7. Reduced level:
The vertical distance of a point above or below the datum line is called as reduced level.
8. Back sight reading:
This is the first staff reading that is taken in any set of the instrument after the leveling is
perfectly done. The point is normally taken on the bench mark.
9. Foresight reading:
It is the last reading that in any set of instrument and indicates the shifting of the latter.
10. Intermediate sight reading:
The staff reading between the back sight and foresight.
11. Cross levelling:
The operation of taking level transverse to the direction of longitudinal leveling.

1.2.4 ObjectivesofSurvey Camp:
The main objective of the camp is to provide a basic knowledge of practical implementation of
different survey work, which must be encountered in future. It enhances the practical
knowledge thereby implementing different work and in other side it involves self-assured
feeling everlastingly. It guides to tread on the path ending with success. The main objectives
of the survey camp are as follows:
To become familiar with the problems that may arise during the fieldworks.
To became familiar with proper handling of instrument and their functions.
To become familiar with the spirit and importance of teamwork, as surveying is not a
single person work.
To complete the given project in scheduled time and thus knows the value of time.
To collect required data in the field in systematic ways.
To compute and manipulate the observed data in the required accuracy
and present it in diagrammatic and tabular form in order to understand by others.
To make capable for the preparation of final report.
