A horizontal collimation test is performed on an automatic level following the procedures described in Section 4.15.5. With the instrument setup at point 1, the rodreading at A was 3.886 ft, and to B it was 3.907 ft. After moving and leveling the instrument at point 2, the rod reading to A was 4.094 ft and to B was 4.107 ft. What isthe collimation error of the instrument and the corrected reading to A from point 2?

A transit was used to determine the elevations of TP1 and the top of the column along the tunnel. The transit was set up first between BM1 and TP1. The stadia rod was held inverted at BM1 and the rod reading was recorded. The slope distance was measured to be 65.254 from the center of the instrument to the point where the rod reading was taken. TP1 was also sighted with the line of sight in the horizontal position. Rod reading and stadia intercept were recorded to be 1.111 m and 0.672 m respectively. The transit was transferred between TP1 and the column. The following readings were recorded. Refer to the figure below. The rod was held in the normal position at TP1 and was inverted at the column wherein the zero mark was placed at the top of the column. a. Determine the stadia intercept at BM1. b. What is the elevation of TP1 if the HI for the first setup is 1.676 m and the rod reading is 2.158? c. What is the difference in elevation between TP1 and the top of the column? d. What is…

Find the RL of the top of the flag post located over a building. The angle of elevation from a point on the ground to the top and the bottom of the flag post are 7° and 15° respectively. The height of the flag post is 3 m and the reading of 2.685 m was taken at BM at RL 110 m.
5. A surveyor on the forward end of a 20"/ 2 mm level vial bubble draws it off two divisions, giving a plus sight reading of 1.234 m on a 100-m shot. Compute the correct reading. Hint: a bubble drawn off on the forward end of the level raises the line of sight.
