Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Land Surveying and Levelling The area of permanent pasture in Great Britain is becoming largely increased, and dependence upon wheat supplies from abroad is becoming more and more absolute, because wheat cannot be profitably grown here, and because the profits of barley growing are so uncertain. Towns extend in all directions giving an increasing value to land, with the con sequent necessity to ascertain accurately its dimensions and content.

Download or read book Railway Right of Way Surveying Classic Reprint written by Albert I. Frye and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-08 with total page 62 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Railway Right-of-Way Surveying This little book outlines a modern system of right-of-way survey ing, leveling, and mapping. Though the system as a whole applies particularly to railroads, the adjustment diagram feature will be found useful in the special adjustment of streets, canals, highways, and old boundary lines. It is hoped the suggestions here given will save time in the organization and prosecution of the work and above all will lead to accurate and permanent results. The method of survey herein described must not be confused with the common one of using the outside head of rail as a base line for locating the various structural features. Vast sums of money have been spent for such surveys, leaving no permanent field reference to lines run and recording sets of maps without any measurements whatever. Many of them have been ordered under the directing influence of rushing some kind of survey through as quickly as possible for pur poses of reconstruction hence no criticism is here offered. But there is no excuse whatever for property surveys not referable to fixed base lines, whether they result in the scale maps above referred to or in the so-called very complete maps, showing instrument lines run, angles and measurements, direct from the field book. The former class of maps is of little practical value, while the latter contains a mass of data not directly available.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Treatise on Railway Surveying and Levelling: In Which the Author Has Endeavoured to Simplify the Most Approved Methods Now Adopted by Surveyors This instrument has passed through many im provements, and has now become, for angular work, the most useful. A description of it is rendered almost unnecessary, from our acquaintance with it, through the means of the numerous publi cations extant. A few words explanatory, sufficient for our Work, may be necessary, but its various improvements and many principles of construction, render it impossible to give more than a general idea. It consists of two circular plates of brass, horizontally placed on a tripod, having also a ver tical arc, or semicircle of brass. These plates and the are are furnished with spirit - levels and screws, by which means the instrument is brought to a level with the surface on which the tripod rests. On the vertical arc is placed a telescope, in the focus end of which are fixed, in some, two threads of silk, or hair, intersecting each other diagonally X or at.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Observations Upon the Natural History of Epidemic Diarrhoea The causative agencies from which springs the plentiful harvest of child mortality in large cities may be conceived as a felted mass of rootlets almost inextricably intertwined. Those of poverty, bad housing, bad feeding, and neglect, may be severally recognized, but the extent of their interrelations with actual respiratory and alimentary disease - those to which the greater part of the mortality is referred - can be traced only with difficulty. It is the object Of this work to aid ln the labour of cutting away the matrix and entangling fibres and to lay bare the hidden ramifications of at least one important causative agency - epidemic diarrhoea. This affection - if we accept provisionally the more novel and generally favoured conception. As to its nature - is revealed as something very like an ordinary infectious disease, and one which permeates all classes, while the excessive mortality it gathers round itself in urban centres must be regarded as something superadded, owing to the vicious circle it forms with those baneful conditions of slum life mentioned above. On the other hand, its peculiarly intimate association with the circum stances of domestic life, from the continual faecal pollution of the interior of the household by infants and others, tends to make it more so than other affections of the kind peculiarly a class disease, and an especial scourge of dirty neighbourhoods. Dirty towns may however be saved from excessive mortality by a high percentage of breast feeding. A notable point in the interesting comparison that can be drawn between diarrhoea and typhoid fever is that, in accordance with their peculiarly opposite age-incidence curves, the marked and habitual depositing of infectious excreta within the household in the former disease may make the question of water-closet versus conservancy pan a matter of far less importance than in the latter.

Download or read book A Treatise on Levelling Topography and Higher Surveying Classic Reprint written by W. M. Gillespie and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-27 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Treatise on Levelling, Topography and Higher Surveying This volume, announced several years ago as being in preparation to follow the author's Land Surveying, was left at the time of his death unfinished. In preparing it for the press, the editor has endeavored to carry out, as far as possible, the plan already laid down. A considerable part of the volume has been given by the author, in the form of lectures to the civil engineering classes in Union College, and has been printed from the original manuscript. The best authors on the subjects treated have been consulted, in order to render the work as complete as possible. The principal authorities are the following: Begat, Bourns, Breton, Chauvenet, Fenwick, Frome, Gurley, Guyot, Jackson Lee, Narrien, Puissant, Salneuve, Simms, Smith, Stephenson, Wiesbach, Williams, and the papers of the United States Coast Survey. Wherever it has been necessary to refer to the elementary principles of surveying, reference has been made to Gillespie's Land Surveying (designated as L. S. for brevity), and the numbers of the articles referred to are enclosed in parentheses. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Surveying and Levelling Instruments Theoretically and Practically Described written by William Ford Stanley and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-21 with total page 570 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Surveying and Levelling Instruments, Theoretically and Practically Described: For Construction, Qualities, Selection, Preservation, Adjustments, and Uses; With Other Apparatus and Appliances Used by Civil Engineers and Surveyors Notes were taken for many years before the production of this work of queries that came before the author for reply relative to functional parts of surveying instruments. These bore most frequently reference to optical and magnetical subjects, and to the qualities and action of spirit level tubes, also occasionally to graduation and the qualities of clamp and tangent motions. It was therefore thought that it would be useful to give notes upon these subjects in detail as far as possible in early chapters. As the work proceeded it was found that this plan saved much space in avoiding the necessity for separate description when parts of complex instruments were afterwards described. To show the state of the art and render the work useful, it was necessary that the structure of surveying instruments should be given with sufficient detail to be worked out by the skilful manufacturer. Beyond this it was thought to be most important that the professional man, who must have limited experience of the qualities of workmanship, should be supplied with as many simple tests as possible for assuring the qualities of the instruments he might purchase or use, with details also of their adjustments.
