On a railroad line, two tangents that intersect at station 10+243 so as to form an angle of 36028' are to be connected by a compound curve consisting of two simple curves. The BC which is at station 10 + 163 is to be a 40 curve based on a 20 m chord and is to have a central angle of 170. Compute R2, the stationing of PCC, and the length of tangent from Pl to EC. 10 + 243 PI 36°28' v1 t1 t2 V2 PCC EC 10 + 163 BC R2 R1

Instruments for Surveying

Surveying is the practice that determines the relative three-dimensional positions of many different points on the earth’s surface. There are various instruments used in Surveying like Theodolites, Total station, Tripod stands, Plane table, etc. for measuring horizontal angle, vertical and sloping angle, which are very useful for giving accurate and precise measurement.
