A TES setup was used in the field to determine the height of the new building. The following measurements were taken:
Horizontal distance from the instrument to the building = 150
ft
Zenith angle from instrument to the top of the building =
42o 30’ 0’’
Elevation of nearby benchmark = 100.00 ft
Backsight from the instrument to benchmark = 3.4 ft

5) The total station is setup at A and and a known backshot point is sighted to zero the horizontal angle. The known azimuth of the backshot is 63 03'18". Then the instrument is turned to point B with the following readings o Clockwise horizontal angle 55 37 '42" o Zenith angle 92°34 18" o Slope distance 435.09 ft o Height of the prism 6.00 ft Calculate the X, Y, and Z coordinates of point B. Assume the XY coordinates...
7. An elevation difference measurement by a total station is (a) is from the ground point at the total station to the ground point at the prism computed from only slope distance and zenith angle (b) requires the horizontal circle to compute the elevation difference (c) requires sighting a known elevation on a backsight (d) usually requires height of instrument and height of target to be correctly derived 8. A horizontal angle at 2 from 1 to 3 is 65-08-10,...

Using a total station, a vertical angle of +5 28'12" was taken to a target set 1.700 m above benchmark A of elevation 175.926 m. The EDM slope distance to a reflector set over benchmark A was 443.355 m. From the same setup, a vertical angle of +11°42'12" was then taken to a target set 1.300 m over a point B at the top of the hill and an EDM slope distance of 341.682 m was taken to a reflector...
need help with these two questions ! thanks !
Apply the Law of Sines 7. A helicopter is on a path directly overhead line AB when it is simultaneously observed from locations and B separated by 200 ft. If the angle of elevation from A is 39 and the angle of elevation from Bis 20", what is the distance from cach location to the helicopter? Round to the nearest foot. 200 8. To estimate the height of a building, two...
In order to estimate the height of a building, two students stand at a certain distance from the building at street level. From this point, they find the angle of elevation from the street to the top of the building to be 4040 º. They the move 290290 feet closer to the building and find the angle of elevation to be 5151 º. Assume that the street is level, estimate the height of the building to the nearest foot.
vert Elevation ketch 5 Utilize the batter board method of horizontal and vertical control. The inside pipe diameter is 1 ft. The batter board setup should be 8.00 feet above the pipe invert and above the staked offset, which is 6 ft. horizontally from the pipe center. The pipe invert elevation is 11.62 t. The pipeline-offset stake is at station 5+00, elevation 18.32 ft. and level with the ground surface. The trench is 3 ft. wide. Create a sketch showing...
