| Surveying Assignment | This assessment is worth 35% of the overall module mark | |||
| Assignment Brief: Levelling: You have determined the following information: Results taken from a 2 peg test at Roeburn Hall. Results from a flying levels exercise, whereby level of the local OSBM near Roeburn Hall has been transferred to a nearby TBM. You are also provided with the following information: A theoretical level survey of an area on Maudland Bank. Angular Measurement: You have determined the following information: An angle measured with a theodolite. Results from a closed theodolite survey around Roeburn Hall. Task: You need to present the survey information in a structured report that shows the following: The readings taken and results of the 2 peg test. The readings taken and results of the flying levels from the OSBM to the TBM including reduced levels at the OSBM and TBM and your error. For the level survey; calculated reduced levels plotted at each intersection and contour lines marked clearly on the plan provided. A volume (cut/fill) calculation for the amount of material to be taken away to leave a formation level of 30.000m AOD for a proposed floor slab of a small 12.5mx12.5m building. 45 marks The readings taken during the angular measurement exercises and calculations to translate the readings to an enclosed angle on the ground.The results, calculations and a plot of the closed survey clearly showing the angles and distance, and your closing error. 45 marks Remember to provide explanations as to what could have gone wrong for each set of results, or what could have been done to improve each set of results. 10 marks Plan of the Site on Maudland Bank for the Theoretical level survey.

Compile and compute information on areas, levels and volumes using land surveying. Preparation for the Assessment: You have obtained or been provided with typical results that will be the basis of your calculations. You will be expected to read around and include relevant references your work in your report. An indicative reading list can be found by following the link from Blackboard. CIOB Accreditation requirements mean that you must achieve a minimum mark of 35% from this assignment to be eligible to pass the module overall when all module assessments are aggregated together.
