In leveling across a deep and wide river, reciprocal level readings were taken between two points, X and Y, as follows: a) with instrument set up near point X, the rod readings on X are 1.567 and 1.560 m; on the distant point Y, the rod readings are 2.617, 2.619, 2.620 and 2.612 m. b) with instrument set up near point Y, the rod readings on Y are 3.765, 3.768 and 3.767 m; on the distant point X, the rod readings are 2.176, 2.174, 2.177, 2.173, 5.172 m. Determine the true difference in elevation between the two points and the elevation of point Y if the known elevation of point X is 250.600 m.
A reciprocal leveling is observed across a wide river and the reciprocal level readings were taken between points A and B as follows. With instrument set up near A, the rod readings on A are 2.283 m and 2.285 m. The reciprocal level readings on the opposite side of the river at point B are 3.618, 3.619, 3.621 and 3.622 m. With the instrument set up near B the rod readings on B are 4.478 m and 4.476 m, and the rod readings on the on the opposite side of the river at point A, the rod readings are 3.143, 3.140, 3.146 and 3.144. a) Compute the difference in elevation between A and B with the instrument set up near A. b) What is the true difference in elevation between A and B? c) If the elevation A is 300 m, what is the elevation of B?
The following staff readings were observed successively with a level. The instrument has been shifted after the second and fifth reading: 0.675, 1.230, 0.750, 2.565, 2.225, 1.935, 1.835, 3.220. The first reading was with staff held on benchmark of RL 100.000 m. Enter the readings in a page of level book and calculate the RL of all points. Apply arithmetic checks. Use plane of collimation method.
PLEASE FIND SOLUTION THAT WILL COME UP WITH THE SAME ANSWER The two-peg test is used to determine if the line of sight of an engineer’s level is in adjustment, and the following rod readings are taken: with instrument set up near A, rod reading on A is 1.623 m, rod reading on B is 2.875 m; with instrument set up near B, rod reading on B is 1.622 m, and rod reading on A is 0.362 m. i. The correct rod reading on A to give a level line of sight with the instrument still set up near B should be? answer: 0.366 m ii. In order to adjust the line of sight, the horizontal cross hairs should be moved? answer: Upward by 0.004 m
