Question

A survey monument is to be installed at STA 12+55.25’. The reclamation district is installing a new sewer manhole at that location and the monument needs to be moved 177 inches further down the center line (increasing station #). What is the new station of the monument?

Expert Solution
Step 1

Given:

Current Station = STA 12+55.25’

Increase in station = 177 in

Step 2

In the numbering of a station, STA stands for station and each station is at a distance of 100’ from each other. So, the number of a station represents that by what multiple of 100’ it is away from the benchmark. Also, the numbers after the plus sign shows by how much further down in ft you have moved from the station.
