Dlsu Surveying 1

The document discusses surveying techniques and provides example problems. It defines surveying, its types including plane and geodetic surveying, and leveling methods like direct and indirect leveling. Several multi-part problems are presented regarding pace factor calculation, line length determination, elevation differences, and correcting for inclined sights and rods. Solutions require using leveling, trigonometric, and other surveying formulas and computations.
