Inquiry Question Can I Build a Theodolite to Calculate the Height of a Building? Math: Angles Inquiry Question Can I build a theodolite to calculate the height of a building? Name: ___________________________ Date: ____________ General Instructions Theodolites are tools that allow us to collect information about land (like angles and heights) and are used extensively for land surveying, the building of structures, and in some unique cases for meteorology (weather) and rocket launching! You will build a simple theodolite to measure a couple angles, then use that data to determine the height of a building or structure. Materials you’ll need: Pencil, eraser, scientific calculator, ruler/tape measure To build the theodolite: o Scissors, glue, protractor (can print one), compass (for drawing circles), cardboard, thread/string, paper, small object, brad/paper fastener Project submission: Submit the completed pages of this project, showing any work you did. Also include a clear picture of yourself with your completed theodolite and the object you determined the height of. 2021-08-04 Page 1 of 5 Math: Angles Background Have you ever looked along the side of the road in an area of construction and seen a yellow object on a tripod with someone looking through it? This object is typically called a theodolite and is used by land surveyors to determine very accurate locations of points. Modern theodolites measure angles and distances electronically, but simple theodolites have a telescope view-piece that can rotate horizontally (side to side) and vertically (up and down) and allows you to determine both angles. Building a Simple Theodolite Your first task is to build a simple theodolite. It only needs to be able to measure the vertical angle of inclination and not the horizontal angle. To build your theodolite, see the following webpage for instructions: https://www.instructables.com/Simple-Theodolite/ This video shows a similar method to making a simple theodolite, though you will need a protractor and slightly varied materials: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FVqNEBWH4B0 Printable protractor (would need to mount on cardboard): https://www.cool2bkids.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/Printable-Protractor.pdf Both the webpage and video also contain instructions on how to use the theodolite. Refer to these if you need a reminder later in the project. 2021-08-04 Page 2 of 5 Math: Angles Taking Measurements You will find the height of an object that is on level ground and has an inaccessible base. This strategy can be used to determine the height of a distant object without having to be near it (that said if you pick an object you can touch like your house that is okay). Below is a diagram that includes the variables you will either measure or be asked to calculate. Your goal is to determine the value of FG to find the total height, EG = EF + FG. 1) First, identify all parallel lines and record them in the space below. Head outside and determine the values of the following measurements and record them below: 2) The height of the theodolite when taking measurements from point A: o AC = _________________ meters 3) The angle of inclination when looking at point G from point C: o = _________________ degrees 4) Move휃 closer to the object. This distance should be greater than or equal to 5m. o d = AB = ______________ meters 푑 = 퐴퐵 5) The height of the theodolite when taking measurements from point B: o BD = _________________ meters 2021-08-04 Page 3 of 5 Math: Angles 6) Does BD need to be the same height as AC? Why or why not? 7) The angle of inclination when looking at point G from point D: o = _________________ degrees ∅ Analysis Questions 8) Determine the values of the green angles, and , given: and (measured above), and the parallel lines (identified above in #1). Show your work below and include reasons for each of your calculations, like as in a proof.훼, 휔, 훾 휃 ∅ 9) What type of triangles are both GCF and GDF? ________________________________ 10) What types of angles are the following: o GDF __________________________ o CDG __________________________ 2021-08-04 Page 4 of 5 Math: Angles Calculation of Objects Height To determine the height FG, we need to use trigonometry and some algebra. The steps are shown below: Determining height of GF …(step 1)… using trigonometry 퐺퐹 푡푎푛휃 = 퐶퐹 …(2)… cross multiplying 퐺퐹 퐶퐹 = 푡푎푛휃 …(3)… using trigonometry 퐺퐹 푡푎푛휙 = 퐷퐹 …(4)… cross multiplying 퐺퐹 퐷퐹 = 푡푎푛휙 We don’t know the length of CF or DF, but we do know that CF – DF = d …(5)… 퐶퐹 − 퐷퐹 = 푑 …(6)… by substituting the equalities in (2) and (4) 퐺퐹 퐺퐹 푡푎푛휃 푡푎푛휙 − = 푑 …(7)… factoring out GF 1 1 푡푎푛휃 푡푎푛휙 퐺퐹 ( − ) = 푑 …(8)… isolating GF by dividing 푑 1 1 1 1 퐺퐹 = 푡푎푛휃−푡푎푛휙 푡푎푛휃 − 푡푎푛휙 11) Using the equation found in (8), determine the height GF.

  • Plane Table Civil Engineering Department Integral
    CIVIL ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT INTEGRAL UNIVERSITY LUCKNOW Basic Survey Field Work (ICE-352) The history of surveying started with plane surveying when the first line was measured. Today the land surveying basics are the same but the instruments and technology has changed. The surveying equipments used today are much more different than the simple surveying instruments in the past. The land surveying methods too have changed and the surveyor uses more advanced tools and techniques in Land survey. Civil Engineering survey is based on measuring, recording and drawing to scale the physical features on the surface of the earth. The surveyor uses instruments for measuring, a field book for recording and now a days surveying softwares for plotting and drawing to scale the site features in civil engineering survey. The surveying Leveling techniques are aided by instruments such as theodolite, Level, tripods, tapes, chains, telescopes etc and then the surveying engineer drafts a report on the proceedings. S.NO APPARATUS IMAGE DISCRIPTION . NAME In case of plane table survey, the measurements of survey lines of the traverse and their plotting to a suitable 1- PLANE TABLE scale are done simultaneously. Instruments required: Alidade, Drawing board, peg, Plumbing fork, Spirit level and Trough compass . The length of the survey lines are measured with the help of tape or chain. 2- CHAIN AND TAPE Compass surveying is a type of surveying in which the directions of surveying lines are determined with a 3- PRISMATIC magnetic compass. &SURVEYOR The compass is CAMPASS generally used to run a traverse line. The compass calculates bearings of lines with respect to magnetic north.

  • 6. Determination of Height and Distance: Theodolite
    Geography (H), UG, 2nd Sem CC-04-TH: Thematic Cartography 6. Determination of Height and Distance: Theodolite What is Theodolite? A Theodolite is a measuring instrument used to measure the horizontal and vertical angles are determined with great precision. Theodolite is more precise than magnetic compass. Magnetic compass measures the angle up to as accuracy of 30’. Anyhow a vernier theodolite measures the angles up to and accuracy of 10’’, 20”. It is of either transit or non- transit type. In Transit theodolites the telescope can rotate in a complete circle in the vertical plane while Non-transit theodolites are those in which the telescope can rotate only in a semicircle in the vertical plane. Types of Theodolite A Transit Theodolite Non transit Theodolite B Vernier Theodolite Micrometer Theodolite A I. Transit Theodolite: a theodolite is called transit theodolite when its telescope can be transited i.e. revolved through a complete revolution about its horizontal axis in the vertical plane. II. Non transit Theodolite: the telescope cannot be transited. They are inferior in utility and have now become obsolete. Kaberi Murmu B I. Vernier Theodolite: For reading the graduated circle if verniers are used, the theodolite is called a vernier theodolit. II. Whereas, if a micrometer is provided to read the graduated circle the same is called as a Micrometer Theodolite. Vernier type theodolites are commonly used. Uses of Theodolite Theodolite uses for many purposes, but mainly it is used for measuring angles, scaling points of constructional works. For example, to determine highway points, huge buildings’ escalating edges theodolites are used.
