Tacheometric surveying uses a tacheometer to determine horizontal and vertical distances through angular measurements. A tacheometer is a theodolite fitted with stadia hairs and an anallatic lens. The tacheometric formula relates the staff intercept, focal length, stadia interval and additive constant to calculate horizontal distances. Methods include stadia, fixed/movable hair, and non-stadia techniques. Determining the tacheometer constant involves measuring distances and staff intervals at stations to solve equations. Errors arise from incorrect stadia intervals or graduations. Tacheometric surveying provides distances in rough terrain but with less precision than other methods.
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.
The document provides information about theodolites. It begins with an introduction stating that a theodolite is used to measure horizontal and vertical angles more precisely than a magnetic compass. It then discusses the main parts of a theodolite including the horizontal circle, vertical circle, telescope, and levels. The document also covers the history of theodolites from their early origins to modern electronic versions. It describes how to operate a transit vernier theodolite including terms like centering, transiting, swinging the telescope, and changing face. Finally, it discusses the permanent and temporary adjustments needed to ensure accurate theodolite measurements.
This document discusses methods for setting out simple circular curves in surveying. There are two main methods: linear and angular.

The angular method is used for longer curves and involves measuring deflection angles. It includes Rankine's method of tangential angles using a tape and theodolite to measure deflection angles from the back tangent to points on the curve. The two theodolite method also uses angle measurement between two theodolites.

Curves are used in transportation routes to gradually change direction between straight segments. There are several types of curves including simple, compound, reverse, and transition curves. A simple circular curve connects two tangents with a single arc, and is defined by its radius or degree. Transition curves provide a gradual transition between tangents and circular curves to avoid abrupt changes in grade or superelevation that could cause vehicles to overturn. There are several methods for laying out circular curves, including using offset distances from the long chord between tangent points or measuring deflection angles from the initial tangent.
Tacheometry is a surveying method that uses optical instruments like a theodolite fitted with a stadia diaphragm to measure horizontal and vertical distances between points. It works on the principle that the ratio of distance from the instrument to the base of an isosceles triangle and the length of the base is constant. Distances are calculated using stadia intercept readings and multiplying constants based on the focal length of the instrument's objective lens. Tacheometry offers faster measurement compared to traditional chaining and is useful for surveys in difficult terrain like rivers, valleys, or undulating ground where conventional surveying would be inaccurate or slow.

TOTAL STATION: THEORY, USES AND APPLICATIONS.
The total station, (also known as electronic tacheometer) is an instrument that can measure horizontal and vertical angles together with slope distance and can be considered as combined EDM plus electronic theodolite. In common with other electronic surveying equipment, total stations are operated using a multi-function keyboard which is connected to a microprocessor built into the instrument. The microprocessor not only controls both the angle and distance measuring systems but is also used as a small computer that can calculate slope corrections, vertical components, rectangular coordinates and, in some cases, can also store observations directly using an internal memory. Nowadays surveying systems are available which can be use in an integrated manner with Global Positioning System (GPS). so, future total stations may have integrated GPS receivers as part of the measurement unit.

Given:
Sloped distance (S) = 156.77 m
Slope angle (α) = 15°
To find:
Horizontal distance (H)
Solution:
cos 15° = Horizontal distance/ Sloped distance
cos 15° = H/156.77
H = 156.77 * cos 15°
H = 156.77 * 0.9659
H = 151.5 m
Therefore, the horizontal distance is 151.5 m.

It also discusses corrections that must be applied to base line measurements, including for the steel tape's absolute length, temperature, and slope. Sample problems demonstrate computing corrections to determine a base line's true length.
The document discusses geodetic surveying techniques, specifically triangulation. It defines triangulation as measuring angles and distances to determine positions of points using networks of triangles. The key aspects covered are:

LINEAR MEASUREMENT techniques in civil engineeringUjasPandya2
Methods of distance measurement in surveying include direct chaining using tools like chains, tapes, arrows, and rods. Chains can be metric, Gunter's, engineer's, or revenue chains of varying lengths. Tapes like cloth, fiber, metallic, steel, and invar tapes provide more accurate measurements. Accessories such as arrows, ranging rods, offset rods, pegs, and plumb bobs aid in chaining operations and marking points. Errors in surveying can be mistakes, systematic errors due to instruments and conditions, or accidental errors of measurement. Care is required to minimize errors from sources like instruments, natural effects, and human limitations.
This document summarizes a presentation on analyzing the influence of epistemic uncertainty on the seismic vulnerability of Indian code-compliant reinforced concrete (RC) frame buildings. The presentation discusses how stochastic analysis reveals up to a 10-13% increase in the likelihood of complete damage states compared to deterministic analysis. It also finds that accounting for uncertainty increases the estimated probability of collapse for the 4-story RC frame building studied to over 10% in seismic demands. The presentation concludes that considering material variability and other uncertainties more accurately captures the nonlinear response and failure mechanisms of structures during earthquakes.
1. Bridges are structures built to span obstacles like bodies of water, valleys, or roads. Their design depends on their function, the terrain, materials used, and available funds.
2. Common bridge types include beam, truss, and suspension bridges. Beam bridges have horizontal beams supported at each end. Truss bridges use connected elements under tension or compression. Suspension bridges are suspended from cables between towers.
3. Forces on bridges include compression, tension, bending, torsion, and shear. Compression pushes while tension pulls. Bending causes curvature. Torsion causes twisting. Shear results in sliding forces. Engineers must consider these forces during bridge design.

Online train ticket booking system project.pdfKamal Acharya
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.
Data Communication and Computer Networks Management System Project Report.pdfKamal Acharya
Networking is a telecommunications network that allows computers to exchange data. In
computer networks, networked computing devices pass data to each other along data
connections. Data is transferred in the form of packets. The connections between nodes are
established using either cable media or wireless media.

Covid Management System Project Report.pdfKamal Acharya
CoVID-19 sprang up in Wuhan China in November 2019 and was declared a pandemic by the in January 2020 World Health Organization (WHO). Like the Spanish flu of 1918 that claimed millions of lives, the COVID-19 has caused the demise of thousands with China, Italy, Spain, USA and India having the highest statistics on infection and mortality rates. Regardless of existing sophisticated technologies and medical science, the spread has continued to surge high. With this COVID-19 Management System, organizations can respond virtually to the COVID-19 pandemic and protect, educate and care for citizens in the community in a quick and effective manner. This comprehensive solution not only helps in containing the virus but also proactively empowers both citizens and care providers to minimize the spread of the virus through targeted strategies and education.
3. Tachometry
Tachometry is a branch of surveying in which the
horizontal distances and the difference in elevations
are determined by optical means without the use of a
chain or tape.
Tacheometry is also known as tachymetry or
telemetry.
The method is more rapid though less accurate as
compared with chaining
4. Situation
1. In rough country, both horizontal and vertical
measurements are tedious and chaining is in accurate,
slow and difficult.
2. when obstacles such as steep and broken ground,
stretches of water or swamps are net with.
3. In locating contours and filling in detail in a topographic
survey, this method is usually the quickest & best.
4. when area to be surveyed is very large and accuracy
required is less.
5. Characteristics
1. horizontal angles and vertical elevations are
measured with tacheometry.
2. The horizontal and vertical distance between two
points is calculated from the observations taken by
tacheometer.
3. For tacheometric survey, only tacheometer and
stadia rod are required.
4. Use of chain is completely eliminated.
5. Accuracy is less compared with chaining or
6. Applications
1. Preparation of topographic maps which require both
horizontal distances and elevations.
2. Survey work in difficult terrain where direct
methods are inconvenient.
3. Filling details in a traverse.
4. location surveys for highways, railways, canals, etc.
5. hydrographic surveys.
7. Stadia method
1. In this methods, stadia interval is kept
constant.
2. In this methods, the staff intercept on the
staff varies depending upon the horizontal
distance between the instrument station
and the staff.
3. This method is most commonly used in
practices as it is convenient to take the
staff readings speedily.
4. Tacheometer and stadia rod are used.
1. In this method, the stadia hairs are
adjusted by micrometer screws such that
upper hair bisects the upper target and the
lower hair bisects the lower target.
2. In this method, the staff intercept is kept
constant.
3. This method is generally not used, as it is
inconvenient to measure the stadia
interval.
4. substance theodolite and target staff are
used.
Movable hair methodsFixed hair methods
8. Both angles are angles of elevation
D = S
(tan ∝1 - tan ∝2)
V = S tan ∝2
(tan ∝1 - tan ∝2)
9. Both angles are angles of depression
D = S
(tan ∝1 + tan ∝2)
V = S tan ∝2
( tan ∝1 + tan ∝2)
10. Both angles are angles of depression
D = S
(tan ∝2 - tan ∝1)
V = S tan ∝2
(tan ∝2 - tan ∝1)
11. 1. As two vertical angles have to be measured, it takes
more time as compared with stadia method.
2. The error will occur if the instrument gets disturbed
between the two observations which will cause error.
3. There may be changes in atmospheric refraction in the
period between the two observation which will cause
error.
4. The readings are not easily reduced to the horizontal
distance and vertical intercept.
Disadvantages of tangential method
12. Error in tacheometry
Like in other survey methods, tacheometry can also have the
following errors :
1. Instrumental errors
2. Personal errors
3. Errors due to natural causes
High degree of accuracy in tacheometric observations can be
achieved by :
● Taking proper care in manipulating the instrument.
● Limiting the length of sights.
● Using instruments of good quality.
● working in favourable atmospheric condition.
13. Standards of precision
1. The error in single horizontal distance(D) should
not exceed 1 in 500.
2. The linear error of closure in traversing can be
computed from c√p metres, where c varies from
0.03 to 0.06 and P is the perimeter of the
traverse in meters.
3. The permissible closing error in levelling in a
bench mark may be taken as 0.003√l metres,
where l is the total length traversed.
