Where:
𝐂𝐨𝐫𝐫 = 𝐓𝐋 − 𝐍𝐋
𝐶 = total correction to be applied
to the measured length or length to
𝐌𝐋 be laid out
𝐂𝐥 = 𝐂𝐨𝐫𝐫( )
𝐍𝐋
CL = corrected length of the line
to be measured or laid out
𝐂𝐋 = 𝐌𝐋 ± 𝐂𝐥
ML = measured length or length to
be laid out
NL = nominal length of tape
B
Where:
s = measured slope dist between A & B
h = difference in elevation of A & B
d = equivalent horizontal distance AC
C = slope correction or the diff
A between the slope length and
horizontal distance

𝑃 − 𝑃 𝐿
𝐶 =
𝐴𝐸
Where:
𝑃 = Measured pull of the tape during measurement
𝑃 = Standard pull of the tape for which it was calibrated
L = Measured length of the line
A = Cross-sectional area of the tape
E = Modulus of elasticity of the tape material

Where:
𝝎 = weight of the tape per unit length
L = unsupported length of the tape
P = measured pull applied on the tape

Normal Tension
▪ By exerting a sufficiently greater amount of pull on the tape
when it is suspended and sagged, the tape will be stretched
and a considerable decrease in the amount of sag results. The
applied pull which will lengthen the tape to equal the
shortening caused by sag is referred to as the Normal
Tension. The formula for normal tension is expressed as:
𝟎. 𝟐𝟎𝟒𝑾 𝑨𝑬
𝑷𝑵 =
𝑷𝑵 − 𝑷𝑺
Where:
W = Total weight of the tape between supports
A = Cross-sectional area of the tape
E = Modulus of Elasticity
𝑷𝑺 = Standard pull for the tape
