Introduction

Leveling is a method to measure the elevation difference between two or more

points. In this practical, focus is shifted to one of leveling techniques namely, fly level
observation or also known as the rise and fall method. The observation will be
initiated from a known reduced level (RL) value of a benchmark (BM) and end at
another known RL value of BM.

In between the BMs, a number of change points (CPs) will be set up to observe
the fore sight (FS) reading and the back sight (BS) reading of each stationed staves
and the values are booked. Upon completion of the observation, the RL values will be
calculated and booked. After the RL values are known, three arithmetic checks will be
calculated to ensure the precision of the works. Consequently, the adjustment value
can be computed where this value will be distributed accordingly to each station.
Finally, the adjusted RL values are booked and the misclosure will be calculated to be
compared with the adjusted values to determine whether the leveling works is
accepted or unsatisfactory.

Leveling results can be also used for design of highways, rail ways, sewers and
more. Beside that, it can also used to calculate the volume of earthwork and develop
maps showing general ground configurations. It can be used as a site layout for a new
foundations, contouring drainage as well as estimating the fall of pipe.
Observations

1. To carry out fly level observation (Rise and Fall method) from benchmark (BM) to
temporary benchmark (TMB).

2. To compute the transferred RL from BM to TBM.

3. To adjust and check the leveling data.
