Introduction

A foundational understanding of surveying principles for engineering project


location, design, and construction is given. Students gain proficiency with
surveying tools like theodolites, measuring tapes, electronic distance
measurement devices, and automatic levels. The course places a strong
emphasis on the skills of identifying error causes and developing error-
minimization techniques. It is thought that collaborative efforts are required to
gather surveying data and create a draft route plan.

Objectives
Introducing surveying instruments available at College of Engineering,
UNITEN.

Methodology

Apparatus:
1. Automatic Level
2. Digital Theodolite
3. Traversing Target
4. Tripod
5. Levelling Staff
6. Measuring Tape
7. Hammer and Nails
8. Spray Paint
9. Staff Bubble
Procedure:
1. Students have experienced holding and observing all the surveying equipment at
College of Engineering, UNITEN.
2. Students have discussed about the instruments regarding the usage, handling
method, rules, and regulation for borrowing, using and returning the instruments.
Results, Analysis and Discussion

No Surveying Instrument Functions


.
1 Automatic level It is an optical device
that is used for setting,
measuring, and
transferring horizontal
measures. Using
leveling screws, the
tripod is adjusted to a
level position. A helper
will hold the levelling
staff at the measurement
location while the
operator looks through
the telescope's eyepiece.

2 Digital theodolite comprise an


electronic readout
screen used to
display both
horizontal and
vertical angles, and a
telescope positioned
on a tripod.

3 Traversing target to provide a visible


point of reference for
the surveying
instrument during the
process of traversing.
Traversing is a
technique used to
measure and establish a
series of connected
survey points along a
specific path or route
4 Tripod
A system for supporting
theodolites, total
stations, levels, and
transits, among other
surveying tools.
The head of the tripod
supports the instrument
while the feet are spiked
to anchor the tripod to
the ground.

5 Levelling staff
is a graded hardwood or
aluminum rod that is
used to measure the
heights of points above
a vertical datum or the
difference in height
between two points
when used with a
leveling instrument.

6 Staff bubble
It’s a small circular
bubble on an angle plate
which is held against
one corner of the staff
to ensure that the staff is
held in a vertical
position.
7 Measuring tape
used to measure lengths
along a straight line.
Tapes used in surveying
are usually long,
bendable, and made of
steel or fibreglass.
8 Hammer and nails
Used to set benchmarks,
temporary markings,
securing targets and
marking the control
points.

9 Spray paint
Among the ground
marking tools used by
utility locators, land
surveyors, and other
professionals who must
mark locations on the
ground are spray paints.

Conclusion

Safety is important when working on any job, but for some careers it is of utmost
importance. Besides, civil engineering students should know and expertise about all
surveying equipment before proceeding with other practical training.
