1. Mark all full and plus stations along the line. If necessary,
choose suitable locations for turning points.
2. Measure distances of all plus stations from the starting point
(0+00).
3. Set up the level instrument off the survey route such that BS
and FS distances are balanced.
4. For any setup, take a BS at the turning point (or the bench
mark) before, then take an IS at every intermediate point
until reaching the next turning point (or bench mark) at
which a FS is then taken.
5. Compute elevations of all stations and turning points.
6. If a grade is required along the line, compute grade
elevations at all stations, then compute the required cut and
fill at each station.

• Solution
• Error e = [(1.543-1.586)-(1.529-1.588)] /2 = 0.008 m =
8 mm per 50 m
• Error per 30 m=30(8/50)=4.8 mm > 2 mm per 30 m
(Adjustment is needed)
• Adjusted d2 rod reading = 1.588-3(0.008) = 1.564 m.

Trigonometric Leveling Example
A theodolite is set up at point A whose elevation is 100.00
m. A level rod is put at point B whose horizontal distance
from A is 120.00 m. If rod reading is 2.29 m, zenith angle
is 65o, height of instrument is 1.50 m, find ElevB.
Solution:

Solution:
V = 500.00 cot(65o) = 233.15 m
Combined curvature and refraction effect
CR = 0.0675(0.5)2 = 0.017 m
ElevB =100.00 + 1.50 + 233.15 - 2.29 + 0.017 = 332.38 m
