Report Engine Precise Levelling

Precise levelling is a highly accurate form of differential levelling that uses precise instruments and rigorous observation procedures to achieve high levels of accuracy such as 1 mm per 1 km traverse. It is used to establish basic levelling frameworks for countries, transfer heights to benchmarks, and precision engineering projects like dams, tunnels, and irrigation schemes where readings are recorded to decimals of a millimeter.

ENGINEERING SURVEYING II

PRECISE LEVELLING

Introduction
Precise levelling is a particularly accurate method of differential levelling which uses highly
accurate levels and with a more rigorous observing procedure than general engineering levelling.
It aims to achieve high orders of accuracy such as 1 mm per 1 km traverse.
Furthermore, readings observed and recorded to decimals of a millimeter. Being used for basic
levelling framework of a country, transfer height to bench marks, precision engineering structure
such as irrigation scheme, dam, tunnels and precision dimensional surveys.
