This updated and expanded edition of the book includes four additional chapters on earthwork on sloping sites; transitional curves and super elevation; calculations of super elevations on composite curves; and underground mine surveying. Richly illustrated with diagrams, equations and tables as well as examples of every day survey tasks.
It also covers new topics, such as the global navigation satellite system’s (Real Time Kinematic-RTK), which are increasingly used in a wide range of everyday engineering applications.
Serves as "how to" guide specifically for the civil or mining engineer Provides excruciating detail to solutions of many illustrated problems Includes no maths beyond secondary school level (addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, plane trigonometry) Written for civil and mine engineers rather than surveyors Presents surveying technologies relevant for civil and mine engineers Includes numerous worked examples and solutions
