Setting out a point using Total Station (or Theodolite)

Calculating data required to set out a pint (for example a building corner) using Total Station or theodolite.

[@RodelJuadinez-uu5tf]

Very Clear and Effective for Checking in the field while using Total Station.😂

Thanks

[@millivanilli4825]

Very good video, I understood in 30 minutes video what in three hours classroom didn't.

[@ziadabdeldayem6884]

Happy to hear that.

im a new pipe ftter in iron ore wet plant construction thanks for this lesson now
now i can easy find the module branch location of piping system and coordinates on the
drawing. Thank you so much sir.

[@ziadabdeldayem6884]

Glad to hear that.

Great video. How do I establish point X on the ground? I see you're using point X as a reference for all calculations but I don't know how to set that point on the ground. Can you please explain how to do this.

[@ziadabdeldayem6884]

Please watch the Resection Video for establishing x.

[@rekanburhan9486]

Can we use theodolite to setout the map on ground ? In where we use bearing and distance on the instrument ?

[@ziadabdeldayem6884]

Yes, you can.

[@bikualemtamiru3419]

thank you sir!!!!!!!really you have our problem silver!!!god bless you sir!!!!!!!!!!!!!!plz another time brief me about bridge setting out by any sokia or other survey instrument?

[@ziadabdeldayem6884]

Thanks.

[@millivanilli4825]

Why do you write ▲NXC3 in positive when calculating the QB ?
And where the 78º41'24'' come from if 10/2 = 5 , so tan inverse of 5 = 1º22' 24''
I appreciate your reply !

[@millivanilli4825]

Ok, excuse me ! I just realised that is indicated the ''absolutes values '' should be used when calcuating QB. However I still don't get where you arrive to 78º41'24''.

[@ziadabdeldayem6884]

@@millivanilli4825 Inverse tan of 5 is 78º41'24''. Try it again, on your calculator you should have tan-1(5) = 78º41'24''.

[@ibrahime4925]

Salam Ziad, does the land need to be levelled before we set out using the bearings and distances?

[@ziadabdeldayem6884]

Hello. No, as the distances measured for setting out are horizontal not sloped.

[@ibrahime4925]

@@ziadabdeldayem6884 Yes, so on a sloping site we would need to correct the horizontal distance and use the slope distance when measuring from the theodolite to our peg in question

[@khalidhashemi1181]

Great vid can you show how to do azmith, how to use a tape measure properly and transverse please.

what if i am to select the benchmark for setting the machine. how do i go about the distances

[@ziadabdeldayem6884]

Watch this video, I hope it can help answering your question. ua-cam.com/video/y2plmMfRtaM/v-deo.html

Hi, Could you point out what the chains and the offsets are?

[@ziadabdeldayem6884]

Hello and thanks for your question. Chain and offset (or Tape and offset) is explained in the video on this link: ua-cam.com/video/ndMx_tcG798/v-deo.html

Good lesson keep up

Thanks.

[@zewdge7492]

Give us explanation ,use of total station instrument in detail

[@rajkiran226]

very good explanation if the same in the total station that will be finer to execute.🙏

[@otengemmanueldanso8177]

How did you get the dimensions

[@ziadabdeldayem6884]

From the plan.

[@SchwanaCARDHUT]

Bravo 👏

[@ziadabdeldayem6884]

Thanks.

[@dominicgeorge7299]

How is x established, do you just place x anywhere on the site and then proceed

[@ziadabdeldayem6884]

X is a control survey station that should be known on the plan and on the ground (nail). Regards

How did your tan inverse give you 11

[@ziadabdeldayem6884]

Inverse tan of 2/10 is 11º18'36''. Try it, on your calculator you should have tan-1(2/10) = 11º18'36''.
