Syllabus: Survey is the first step for starting any civil work. Measuring the distances, angles, dimensions, and calculating the areas, volumes – Finding the different levels, slopes for executing the works of - Roads, Bridges, dams, lakes, culverts, canals, mines, Railway tracks, drainage system, water supply, oil pipelines, Farms, colonies, mark out for buildings etc; Preparing the survey drawing for presentation/ execution. We teach from the basics starting from Plain Table Survey, Chain Survey, Compass Survey, Contours, Levelling through Dumpy Level, Theodolite etc
Total Station is the advanced electronic / computerised machine for topographic surveying. It is integrated with an electronic distance meter (EDM) to read slope distances from the instrument to a particular point.The distances, angles, and co-ordinates are measured by infrared signals, with great accuracy.It can store data of distance, angles, levels which can be downloaded to a computer later. The computer will use this data to generate a map and get prints from the printer. Total station is used widely in all civil works all over the world as it saves time and maintains accuracy.
