Question
Differential levelling is carried out from point P (BM: +200.000 m) to point R. The readings taken are given in the table.
Reduced Level (in meters) of the point R is _____ (rounded off to 3 decimal places).
| Points | Staff readings (m) | Remarks | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Back Sight | Fore Sight | ||
| P | (−)2.050 | BM: +200.000 m | |
| Q | 1.050 | 0.950 | Q is a change point |
| R | (−)1.655 |
Correct answer
199.704 to 199.706
Solution
Given:
- Reduced Level (RL) of point P = m
- Back Sight (BS) at P = m
- Fore Sight (FS) at Q = m
- Back Sight (BS) at Q = m
- Fore Sight (FS) at R = m
