Problem 3. A 6° simple curve has a central angle of 44°. The stationing of the point of curve is 13+080. a) Find the distance from the midpoint of the curve to the intersection of the tangents at PC and PT. b) Find the distance from the midpoint of the curve to the midpoint of the long chord joining the point of curvature and the point of tangency. c) Find the stationing of a point on the curve which intersects with the line making a deflection angle of 8° with the tangent through the PC.

Control Survey and Geodetic reductions

Control surveys or survey controls are used to establish reference points as a basis for various construction activities. Vertical and horizontal control points are to be established in a control survey to increase accuracy. After establishing the control points, all other types of surveys such as topographic, right-of-way, aerial mapping, construction layout, boundary surveys, and utility mapping can be worked upon so that control networks can be formed. The place from which the observations are made is called a survey station.
