SECTION-I

Solve any two:

Q.1.a)The area of plan plotted to a seak of 10 m to 1 cm measured now as 100.20 cm2 as measured by planimeter. The plan is found to have shrunk so that a line originally 10 cm long now measures 9.76 cm only.Further the 20 m chain used is 8 cm too short. Find the true area of survey.(10) b)Draw the cross-section of concrete Gravity Dam and show the various levels.(4)

Q.2.a)The following consecutive readings were taken with dumpy level. 3.864, 3.346, 2.932, 1.952, 0.854, 3.796, 2.639, 1.542, 1.934, 0.864, 0.665. The level was shifted after fifth and eighth reading. The first reading was taken on BM of RL 150.250 m. Calculate the R.L.ofchange points and difference of levels between first and last points. (10) b)Comment on the statement. The subject BASIC CIVIL ENGINEERING is of vital importance to all branches ofengineering.(4)

Q.3.a)Define contour and characteristics of contour map and use of contour map.(5) b)Draw the cross-section of concrete Gravity Dam and show the various levels.(5) c)What are the basic principles of surveying?(4)
