The average length of a person's normal step, used in pacing measurements. Expressed as meters per pace.

A surveying method that measures distances by counting steps, knowing the length of a step.

A method for measuring distances using electronic instruments, like total stations. Offers speed, accuracy, and adaptability to complex terrains.

Electronic instrument for surveying that measures angles, distances, and elevations.

A common surveying tape made of steel ribbon, used for measuring distances.

A specialized measuring tape made of an alloy with a low coefficient of thermal expansion, minimizing temperature effects on measurements.

A surveying method that uses tapes (like steel tapes) to measure distances directly.

Two steps or a complete step from heel to heel.

Calculating the horizontal distance (d) between points on a slope, considering the slope's inclination (α).

d = √(s² - h²). Calculates horizontal distance when elevation difference (h) is known.

Adjustment to measured length if there is a difference between the actual (true) tape length and expected (nominal) tape length.

Ch = h^2 / (2s). Used for gentle slopes (<20%).

Ct = c * (T - Ts). Adjusts for length changes due to temperature variation from standardization temperature (Ts).

An error consistently appearing in the same direction during repeated measurements.

The standard or expected length of a measuring tape.

The measured length adjusted for errors, like slope or temperature.

The increase in length of a tape due to applied tension.

The area of the tape's cross-section, usually measured in square centimeters, affects the tape's elongation.

The adjustment made to a measured distance to account for the difference in tension between standard conditions (e.g., 5 kg pull) and the actual pull used during the measurement.

The adjustment made to a measured distance to account for the downward curve of a tape due to gravity when it's not fully supported.

The tension required to make a tape measure its nominal length when supported only at the end points.

The adjustment made to measured distances to account for the difference in elevation between points, converting the slope distance to the horizontal distance.

The adjustment made to measured distances to account for the expansion or contraction of the measuring tape due to temperature changes.

The adjustment made to measured distances to account for the differences in tension applied to the measuring tape during measurement compared to its standard tension.

The amount of change in length per unit of length per degree Celsius (or Fahrenheit) change in temperature.

A material property that indicates its stiffness and resistance to deformation under stress.

The specific tension at which a measuring tape is calibrated to be accurate.

The area of the tape's width and thickness.

Because the length of measuring tapes changes with temperature, affecting the accuracy of distance measurement.
