Explain how will you overcome the obstacles over river during chaining operation.

1 Answer

Answer :

A) river across the chain line.

1. Suppose AB is the chain line. Two points C & D are selected on this line on opposite banks of the river.

2. At C a perpendicular CE is erected and bisected at F. A perpendicular is set out at E and a point G is so selected on it that

D,F & G are in The same straight line.

 3 From triangles DCF & GEF,

 GE=CD

 This distance GE is measured and thus the distance CD is obtained indirectly.

OR

B) river across the chain line

1.Suppose AB is the chain line. Points C , D & E are selected on this line such that D & E are on opposite banks of the river.
2. The perpendicular DF & CG are erected on the chain line in such way that E,F& G are on the same straight line. The line FH is taken parallel to CD.
3.Now, from triangles DEF & HFG,
 ED/DF = FH/HG                Where FH=CD
 ED = (FH/HG ) X DF          CH=DF
 = (CD/(CG-DF) )X DF        HG=CG-CH

Description : A 20 m chain was found to be 10 cm too short after chaining 1000 m It was found to be 20 cm too short after chaining 1800 m. If the chain was correct before commencement of the work find the true distance.  

Last Answer : Average error in chain for 1000 m length = (0 + 10) / 2 = 5 cm = 0.05 m too short True length up to 1000 m = (20 - 0.05) x 1000 / 20 = 997.5 m.
