Types of surveying

Types of survey  We all know what surveying in civil engineering means and in civil engineering survey there are two types Geodetic and plane survey. What is Geodetic survey? The survey in which the shape and curvature of earth is taken into account. Here the true shape of the earth is taken into consideration. This type of surveying is being carried out for highly precise work and is adopted for surveying of large area. It is also called as land survey because curvature of earth is taken into consideration. Since we know that we cannot place two points or draw a straight line on earths surface we use geodetic survey . The term geodetic was taken because earths shape is geoid . A definite limit can not be set for the area upto which a surveying may be treated as plane, as the degree of accuracy required is the main factor we use geodetic survey. What is plane survey? The survey in which the shape of the earth is not taken into account. As we have discussed the geo...

Scope of surveying

What is the scope of surveying?? As we all know survey is the process of measuring land in order to find out its boundaries. Surveying includes levelling ,in which it is possible to find the elevations or levels or height of the points with respect to a given or assumed datum. Levelling is essentially a process of determining the positions of  the points in a vertical plane . Surveying-dailyblogger Scope of surveying are :  In preparation of plan and maps .when we plot drawn all the survey points on paper will constitute a plan . To know the dimensions of any construction site . To establish boundaries of land . To measure area and volume of land . To choose proper site for an engineering project. To conduct all kinds of survey(engineering survey, topological, military, environmental survey, global positioning survey etc). To get information about physical earth , environment in 3D space . Objective of survey The objective of survey is to collect f...

What is the Scope of civil engineering?? Civil Engineering is the oldest branch of the profession of engineering. This is why civil engineering is called mother of engineering . Civil Engineering looks into the public needs to meet the necessary infrastructure demands of the society.It deals with improving the quality of life. So meeting peoples needs and thinking increased development in construction technology. Civil Engineering involves number of operations right from surveying, planning, analysis, design, estimate, execution of work and maintain the structures for its life time . Civil Engineering is a vast area. The first but built with bamboos and leaves can be taken as the first Civil Engineering construction carried out to satisfy the needs for shelter/ The scope of civil engineering is increasing development and need of construction materials,techniques and facilities. Civil Engineering has created scope by providing and achieving new things among them construction is...

What is civil and CTM engineering

Construction engineering Construction engineering is one of the vast part of the civil engineering.so mainly it deals with the designing , planning, construction and management base such as roads ,bridges , dams and totally contains all the majority of the civil engineering works. Along with the construction engineering there is another term associated called as construction technology.now a days there is a seperate branch which deals only with the practical aspects called as construction technology management (CTM).this word may be new for many people but has very good scope . Education for construction managers is primarily focused on  construction procedures, methods, costs, schedules, and personnel management. There is a large difference between construction technology and construction technology management . Here the construction managers focus only on completion of the project ,within the budget and with the same quality as promised to the costomers. Difference bet...
