 NARRATIVE REPORT

It was a high temperature day of March 21, 2023- 9:00am-12:00 noon, when we performed our
laboratory activity in plotting the points of simple curve at the USM ground near D.D. Clemente.
We computed and solved the data, then we resolved and rechecked our answers on our
computations of the data to get the precise and exact. After the long process of evaluating our
calculations we proceeded to plotting the points on field, with the guidance of our professor, Sir
Ronald A. Garbin. Everyone did his/her part to experienced the activity and of course to have a
help in the laboratory for team benefits or for self-exploration and understanding. There are
students assigned on the theodolite measuring instrument, students on the markings, students who
measures the distance, students who record the data, and students who take photos for
documentations. Our first trial was not successful because of the second to the last point was
obstruct by a construction area where we are not able to plot that point on the flat ground as a
result of which, we have decided to start again our plotting at the beginning on a much open filed.
On our second try, the people who performed the first plotting was replaced by those who did not
take part on the first plotting. A phone call was initiated to communicate on the person who hold
the surveying rod from the person who was using the theodolite measuring instrument. Also,
others assisted on the activity by bringing other materials on field such as surveying flags to mark
the points, holding the umbrella because the temperature was high enough to feel the heat on that
day, and others were standing on the points to see how the curve looks like. Since the surveying
flags were not enough to mark all our points and were not visible on the field we decided to mark
the points by means of our classmates standing on each points, one point was occupied by one
person. At long last, we encoded our data, in a detailed way, and made this narrative report.
