10. Course overview:

Surveying is the art of determining the relative positions of points on, above or beneath the surface of the earth by means of direct or indirect measurements of distance, direction and elevation. The planning and design of all Civil Engineering projects such as construction of highways, bridges, tunnels, dams etc. are based upon surveying measurements. Moreover, during execution, project of any magnitude is constructed along the lines and points established by surveying. Thus, surveying is a basic requirement for all civil engineering projects.

11. Course objective:

Using different surveying instruments and their accessories for different purposes.

Collecting field data.

Prepare plan or map of the area surveyed.

Analysing and calculating the field parameters for setting out operation of actual engineering works.

Setting out field parameters at the site for further engineering works.

Explain for students how theoretical data are using in reality and how theoretical and practical data are inter-related.

Solving different problems in practice using theoretical backgrounds.

12. Student's obligation

The student should attend the class due to nature of the subject because it contains theoretical and practical parts, absent student will lose activity marks, he/she must expect quizzes time to time during the academic year, as well as preparing practical reports for each practical objective.

13. Forms of teaching

The form of teaching in theoretical part will be through using data show and white board for explanation and solving examples, also students will receive hard copy of lectures. In the practical part besides of using data show and white board, students are going to field as a group to perform required exercises.

14. Assessment scheme

The Marks are divided as follow:

Homework 14 % Report & Seminar 14 % Assignment 10 % Activity 2 % Quiz 4 % Mid-term exam 16 %

Final exam: Final exam 40 %

19. Examinations:

1. Compositional

Q: What is meant by the term elevation?

Ans: The vertical distance of a point above or below a given reference surface is called the elevation

of the point. The most commonly used reference surface for vertical distance is mean sea level

(MSL).

2. True or false type of exams:

Q: The function of a plumb bob is measuring distance?

Ans: False, plumb bob is used to project a point on the ground 3. Multiple choices:

Q: The decimal form of angle (12˚ 12′ 38″) is?

a. 12.2105˚ b. 12.2105g c. 0.21131
