SUB: ADVANCED SURVEYING PRACTICES

TOPIC 1
PROCEDURE FOR TRAVERSE SURVEY WITH THEODOLITE

A traverse survey with theodolite should be conducted according to the following steps:

Step 1 Reconnaissance: The area to be surveyed is first thoroughly examined to decide the best possible way of starting
the work.

Step 2 Marking the Stations: The traverse stations are marked on the ground by wooden pegs with nails on top.

Step 3 Measurement of interior Angles: The interior angles of the traverse are measured by the method of measuring
horizontal angles.

Step 4 Measurement of Magnetic Bearing:

Step 5 Correction of Measured Angles: The observed angles are not correct.
Correct sum of angles = (2n – 4) x 900
= (2 x 5 – 4) x 900 = 54000’

Detailed measurements are not shown here. Only the final angles are indicated for the preparation of Gale’s table

Error = 539058’ - 5400 = - 002’

Step 8 Location of interior Details: The interior details may be located by (a) the transit and tape method

(b) The plane table method.
