Study Notes
Land Surveying Assignment 1
- The assignment is based on the principles of surveying and coordinates computations in chapter 1 of the handout.
- The assignment requires the use of a table/diagram provided in the Assignment Data Sheet.
Part a: Extracting Coordinates
- Extract the coordinates of points A, B, C, and D.
- Present the coordinates in a table with headings: Point Name, Eastings (E), Northings (N), and Remarks.
Part b: Computing Distances
- Compute distances AB, BC, CD, DA, AC, and BD.
- Present the computed distances in a table.
Part c: Computing Areas of Triangles and Quadrilateral
- Compute the areas of triangles ACB and ADC using Heron's Formula.
- Compute the sum of the areas of the two triangles.
- Compute the area enclosed by the quadrilateral ABCD.
- Present the values of the areas in a table.
Part d: Computing Areas of Triangles and Rectangle
- Compute the areas of triangles ADB and DCB using Heron's Formula.
- Compute the sum of the areas of the two triangles.
- Compute the area of rectangle ABCD.
- Present the values of the areas in a table.
Part e: Computing Bearings
- Compute the bearings of lines AB, BC, CD, DA, AC, and BD.
- Present the computed bearings in a table.
Part f: Computing Internal Angles
- Compute the internal angles at points A, B, C, and D.
- Compute the sum of the internal angles.
- Present the computed angles in a table.
Submission Instructions
- The assignment is a group assignment to be submitted within the designated period.
- The assignment should be done manually on A4 sheets or in a group assignment notebook.
- The finished assignment should be scanned or captured and saved as a single file in PDF format on a pen-drive.
