Surveying - Engineering

Q1:

In chain surveying field work is limited to

A linear measurements only

B angular measurements only

C both linear and angular measurements

D all the above.

ANS:A - linear measurements only

Take the weight of tape = 0.16 N/m,
It's cross sectional area = 2.75 mm2, coefficient of thermal.

In chain surveying, field work is limited to linear measurements only. In chain surveying only linear measurements i.e. lengths are only measured by chain or with tape.
