1. The taped distance of a line is 99.182 m using a 100 m steel tape weighing 2 kg at standard pull of 10 kg and temperature of 32 C. The difference in elevation between the end points is 45 cm. the tape is exactly 100 m at a temp of 28 C. if the coefficient of expansion is 11.8(10- 6)/ C, and a pull of 10 kg is applied supported at 25 m interval during the measurement, find the following: a. Correction due to temperature b. Correction due to sag c. Correction due to tension d. Correction due to slope e. The correct horizontal distance of the line.

exactly 100 m at a temp of 28 C. if the coefficient of expansion is 11.8(10-
6)/ C, and a pull of 10 kg is applied supported at 25 m interval during
the measurement, find the following:
a. Correction due to temperature
b. Correction due to sag
c. Correction due to tension
d. Correction due to slope
e. The correct horizontal distance of the line.
