Book excerpt: Excerpt from Automatic Surveying Instruments and Their Practical Uses on Land and Water Nevertheless there are a great number of military, civil and scientific purposes for which the accuracy obtainable by the Pedograph and the Cyclograph is sufficient. For some such purposes, moreover, it must surely be of great value that the automatic record of the traversed road or line can be obtained in the dark Of night, in fog, or during a march through high grass, bush or woodland (impeding the View) with no more labour or difficulty than at other times or elsewhere, at least with regard to the line of traverse itself. I have no doubt that for military sketches or recon naissances the Pedograph and the Cyclograph will in future be found a means of greatly adding both to the speed and facility of such work, as well as to the choice of personnel employed in it. It was a good plan to supplement the pacing instrument, the Pedo graph, by a wheeling instrument, the Cyclograph, which is less affected by inclinations of the line of traverse. Wherever a vehicle with this instrument attached to it may be employed, or wherever a bicycle can be trundled by its dismounted rider, the Cyclo graph will give the distances and therefore the plan fairly correctly, while in the use of the Pedograph by a pedestrian with little experience in pacing over Sloping ground, a light Slope or little declivities on. The traversed line will soon prove to be a source of loss to the accuracy Of the record drawn. Besides, the speed of a survey by the aid of the former instrument is of course still greater than by using the latter.

This book was released on 2015-08-05 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Engineers Surveying Instruments, Their Construction, and Use It is proposed, to give a series of articles on the best methods of constructing, adjusting, and using different engineering field instruments. The intention is to make the language so simple and clear that all can understand, and at the same time make it something more than an elementary discussion, and not a re-statement of matter found in ordinary text books and engineering manuals. It is not necessary to dwell upon the importance to the engineer of a knowledge of the best forms of construction and of a thorough understanding of the principles which govern the adjustments of his instruments, and of course the engineer should be an expert in handling his instruments. The Platte Table. This instrument is not properly appreciated by the engineering profession. In a general way it is understood to be employed in the surveys, geodetical, topographical and geological, made by the general government, but it seems to be very well understood that the plane table is both useful and available in many cases in ordinary practice.

This chain is used in surveying railroads, canals, and Where extensive line surveys are being con ducted. It is not infrequently employed in finding areas in acres. It is preferred to the surveyor's chain on account of its greater length, which enables one to work more rapidly and more accurately. When the chain is folded up the links Should not be parallel to each other, but should be crossed in such a manner as to touch each other in the middle, thus pre venting the bending of the links in tying up the chain.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Manual of the Principal Instruments Used in American Engineering and Surveying, Manufactured by W. And L. E.

Mr. Phelps retiring some years later, Lewis E. Gurley formed with William Gurley the firm of W. L. E. Gurley; and under this name the business has since been conducted. The first edition of gurley's manual was published in 185 5, a book of seventy pages. It was well received, and was the first really practical treatise on the use and adjust ment of Civil Engineers' and Surveyors' instruments. The revised and enlarged manual is used as a text book ih many schools and colleges, and is freely quoted in technical publications. The capacity of the factory has been increased as the demands of the profession have grown during the half cen tury, until we are now the most extensive manufacturers of Civil Engineers' and Surveyors' instruments in the world.
