List and briefly describe the type of subsurface information that seismic refraction studies can provide and the limitations on information that can be obtained.
Engr. Brimrock is conducting a tacheometric survey and wants to know the elevation of station B. The upper and lower stadia readings on the rod held at station B were observed as 3.27 and 1.47, respectively, with the use of theodolite having a stadia interval factor of 99.99. The height of the instrument above station A is 1.37 m and the rod reading is taken at 1.51 m. The vertical angle observed is - 12° 9' and the elevation at station A is 114.09 m above sea level. Determine the elevation at station B above sea level in meters.
When the reading was taken on a staff held at a point of known elevation of 123.45 m, the staff reading was recorded as 1.875 m. The height of the instrument would be
Two Seismographic stations A and B are located 200 km apart on level ground. An earthquake occurred between these two stations and the epicenter is located exactly on the line joining these two stations. The difference in time between P and S wave arrivals was 10 seconds at A and 15 seconds at B. Determine the location of epicenter from these two stations.
