It consists of a telescope mounted so as to rotate vertically on a horizontal axis supported by a pair of vertical standards attached to a revolvable circular plate containing a graduated circle for reading horizontal angles. Another graduated arc is attached to one standard so that vertical angles can be observed. Strictly speaking, "theodolite" is the correct word to be used in describing such an instrument. However, through common usage in the United States, the term "transit" has come to be applied to the conventional, double center instrument. The engineers transit is used to measure horizontal angles, vertical angles, and is usually equipped with a compass for determining magnetic bearings. Following are some guidelines for use of the equipment. To place the transit on the tripod, first adjust the friction of the tripod legs at the tripod head. The legs should fall freely of their own weight from a horizontal position. Set up the tripod with the legs well spread and pressed firmly into the ground. If the surface is hard, each tripod shoe should be placed in an indentation on the surface. Remove the transit from the case and lifting it by the base immediately screw it firmly on the tripod. Remove the dust cap from the objective lens and replace it with the sunshade. The sunshade should always be used. When carrying the transit, hold it on the shoulder in a horizontal position, instrument to rear. Balance it to carry the weight on the arm. If there are any overhead obstructions, carry the instrument under the arm. _________________________________________________________________ Prof. S.F. Duffy PhD, PE, F. ASCE Revised: 10/29/2006 Page 1 216-687-3874 Stilwell Hall 114 Fenn College of Engineering Cleveland State University Civil Engineering Department 216-687-2400 Cleveland, Ohio 44115 To set up the transit, seize two legs and place the third leg on the ground about two feet from the point. pull the other two legs outward and backward and place them on the ground so that the foot plate is almost level. This, may take some practice. Attach the plumb bob and center the instrument on the foot plate. Move the transit body without moving the legs so that the plumb bob hangs within about 2 inches of the point. Adjust the legs, with the plumb bob moved to about one inch above the point to insure that they are firmly set with the plumb bob still within about 2 inches of the point. The points of the tripod shoes should be placed in cracks or indentations to prevent slipping if the instrument is set up on a paved or masonry surface. Relive any residual friction in the tripod leg hinge by loosening and retightening the tripod hinge thumbscrews. Loosen two adjacent leveling screws. Level the transit head roughly without tightening the screws. Turn the transit until the [plate levels are in line with pairs of opposite leveling screws. Turn the screws following the rule: "Thumbs in, thumbs out, the bubble follows the left thumb." Slide the head until the plumb bob is over the point. Level the instrument. Leave the leveling screws firm but not bound. When the bubbles have been centered turn the instrument 180o in azimuth. If the bubbles do not center, the level is not in adjustment. Bring the bubbles halfway toward the center with the leveling screws and the instrument is now level. Once set up, do not touch it or allow it to touch anything except for transit operations. PROCEDURE To set an angle or to point the instrument, first choose the proper motion to use. Loosen the clamp, bring the instrument approximately into position, clamp it, and make a fine adjustment with the tangent screw. It is good practice to bring the instrument on with a final clockwise motion of the tangent screws. 1. Set up the transit over the station/stations give for your squad. Center and level over the said station/stations by plumb bob and two pairs of leveling screws. Make sure that the telescope is at a convenient height for sighting. 2. To measure an angle (interior and exterior at each station), set Vernier A at zero and then read Vernier B. Record the readings of both Verniers. Make a pointing on the object that marks _________________________________________________________________ Prof. S.F. Duffy PhD, PE, F. ASCE Revised: 10/29/2006 Page 2 216-687-3874 Stilwell Hall 114 Fenn College of Engineering Cleveland State University Civil Engineering Department 216-687-2400 Cleveland, Ohio 44115 the left hand side of the angle with a spindle clamp (lower motion) unlocked; use slow motion screw (tangent screw) for fine adjustment. Check the Vernier readings after locking the lower motion (LM). This corresponds to OD (zero direct) reading sighting on the back sight. During this operation, the plate clamp (upper motion) is locked. 3. Unlock or release the plate clamp (upper motion) and make a pointing on the object that marks the right hand side of the angle. Lock upper motion and make fine adjustment on the sighting with the tangent screw. Read Verniers A and B. This corresponds to 1D (one time direct reading) reading. 4. Repeat the complete procedure again for measuring the exterior angle and thus close the horizon at each station. Make sure that the summation of interior and exterior angles lie with + 1o of 360o. 5. Balance the summation of the interior and exterior angles so that the sum is exactly 360o 00' 00''. 6. While set up at one station, determine the magnetic bearing of one line of the traverse using the transit compass. Calculate the true bearing of that line. The magnetic declination in the Cleveland area is approximately 5oW. Starting at that station, calculate the true bearings of all lines on the traverse as an office calculation.

  • Projectile Motion Physics 110 Laboratory
    Projectile Motion Physics 110 Laboratory Introduction In this lab, we will study the motion of small steel balls fired from a spring-powered projectile launcher. You will use two different methods to find the initial velocity of the balls leaving the launcher, and use that velocity, together with the equations governing projectile motion, to predict the range of a projectile fired at an arbitrary angle. As a test of your prediction, you will be asked to use the prediction to place a target on the floor at the spot where the ball will land. Along the way, you will also investigate some new techniques of error analysis, and the differences between systematic and random errors. Apparatus The apparatus for this lab consists of a spring-powered projectile launcher which will fire a small steel ball. • Never look into the muzzle of the launcher when a ball is in the chamber. • Do not exceed the \medium" launch setting. • Please do not compress the spring with the rod without a ball loaded into the chamber, as this can damage the launcher. The launcher accepts a 25 mm diameter steel ball. Place the ball into the launcher and push down using the provided ramrod. Looking through the side of the launcher, you can see a yellow indicator aligning with several levels. At each level, the lever will lock the spring into place. Pulling on this lever will fire the ball. The launcher is fitted with a plumb bob hanging from a string. This allows you to accurately set the launch angle of the ball, between 0 and 90 degrees (with 90◦ being straight up and 0 being directly to the right).

  • Parts of Theodolite and Their Functions Pdf
    Parts of theodolite and their functions pdf Continue The components and their the TheodoliteA compass functions measure direction by measuring the angle between the line and the direction of the reference, which is a magnetic meridian. The compass can measure angles up to 30 accuracy and judgment to 15. The principle of the compass is based on the property of the magnetic needle, which at free suspension takes the direction of north-south. Thus, compass measurements affect external magnetic influences, and therefore in some areas the compass is unsuitable. In this here we will discuss another method of measuring the direction of lines; theodolit is very often used to measure angles in the survey work. There are various theodolites, optical, electronic, etc. improvements (from one form to another) have been made to ensure simplicity of work, better accuracy and speed. Electronic theodolites display and store corners at the touch of a button. This data can also be transferred to the computer for further processing. We begin our discussion with the simplest theodolite-faithful theodolite. Theodolit is a simple and inexpensive tool, but very valuable in terms of measuring angles. The common vernier theodolite measures angles up to an accuracy of 20 in the compass, where the line of sight is simple, limiting its range, theodolites are provided by telescopes that provide a much greater range and better ac-curacy in sighting distant objects. It is, however, a delicate tool and should be treated with caution. Theodolit measures horizontal angles between lines and can also measure vertical angles. The horizontal angle measured can be turned on by angle, angle of deviation or outer angle in the traverse.

  • Theodolite Survey
    1 THEODOLITE SURVEY RCI4C001 SURVEYING Module IV Theodolite Survey: Use of theodolite, temporary adjustment, measuring horizontal andvertical angles, theodolite traversing Mr. Saujanya Kumar Sahu Assistant Professor Department of Civil Engineering Government College of Engineering, Kalahandi Email : [email protected] Theodolite Surveying 2 The system of surveying in which the angles (both horizontal & vertical) are measured with the help of a theodolite, is called Theodolite surveying Compass Surveying vs. Theodolite Surveying ➢Horizontal angles are measured by using a Compass with respect to meridian, which is less accurate and also it is not possible to measure vertical angles with a Compass. ➢So when the objects are at a considerable distance orsituated at a considerable elevation or depression ,it becomes necessary to measure horizontal and vertical angles more precisely. So these measurements are taken by an instrument known as a theodolite. How Does a Theodolite Work? A theodolite works by combining optical plummets (or plumb bobs), a spirit (bubble level), and graduated circles to find vertical and horizontal angles in surveying. An optical plummet ensures the theodolite is placed as close to exactly vertical above the survey point. The internal spirit level makes sure the device is level to to the horizon. The graduated circles, one vertical and one horizontal, allow the user to actually survey for angles. APPLICATIONS 3 • Measuring horizontal and vertical angles. • Locating points on a line. • Prolonging survey lines. • Finding difference of level. • Setting out grades • Ranging curves • Tacheometric Survey • Mesurement of Bearings CLASSIFICATION OF THEODOLITES 4 Theodolites may be classified as ; A. Primary i) Transit Theodolite. ii) Non Transit Theodolite.
