    1) The document describes a surveying lab experiment to determine the height of an object using a transit theodolite when the base line is accessible. 2) The procedure involves setting up the transit theodolite at a station and taking vertical angle readings of the top and bottom of the object, as well as measuring the horizontal distance to the object. 3) The height is then calculated using trigonometry, by taking the tangent of the vertical angles multiplied by the horizontal distance.

    Aim

    Determine
    the height of
    object when
    base line is
    accessible.
    INSTRUMENTS USED

    Transit Theodolite Tripod Ranging rods

    01/26/2024 Annual Review 4


    PROCEDURE
     Setup the instrument at station p.
     Perform all temporary adjustment.
     Bring the line of collimation horizontal
    (vertical angle reading is zero).
     Sight the top of the object(A),read the vertical
    angle α1.
     Sight the bottom of the object B,and read the
    vertical angle α2.
     Measure the horizontal distance between the
    instrument station and the object (D).
     Calculate the height of the object as Follow:
    h1 = D tanα1 h2 = D tanα2

    PRECAUTIONS
     Level and center the instrument carefully over the station.
     The theodolite and the telescope both should be perfectly clamped for
    the precise readings.
     All instruments used in surveying must be handle carefully.
