How is resection done in survey?
KomalBhandakkar
Resection is nothing but free stationing. It is a method of finding a location of unknown point about known points. The total station is simply mean a zero point. Freely positioned the instrument hence every survey points should be at appropriate sight from the instrument. Then setting up a zRead more
Resection is nothing but free stationing.
It is a method of finding a location of unknown point about known points.
The total station is simply mean a zero point.
Freely positioned the instrument hence every survey points should be at appropriate sight from the instrument.
Then setting up a zero point on a known point and often it is impossible to see all survey points.
With the zero points, the distances & bearings are measured to minimum two points of a control network.
With the help of a geometric transformation, those polar coordinates are transformed into a coordinate system of a control network.
Using square adjustment, errors are distributed.
The orientation as well as the position of the total station about where the control network is established.
Thank You.

Here I am discussing about High humidity & rain. Actually, the compressive strength of concrete reduces with the high relative humidity which results in durability problem. Due to higher moisture in the surface of concrete results a growth of mold and bacteria.

KomalBhandakkar
Universal Foundation: It is an offshore foundation & it is nothing but a pile foundation. Pile foundation is used to transfer the loads from superstructures through weak, compressible strata or water onto stronger, more compact, less compressible, and stiffer soil or rock at depth, increasing thRead more

KomalBhandakkar
Strap footing: It is necessitated when a certain column footing has to be restricted in width becuase of unavoidable interference or boundary limitation.Strap footingis a type of combined footing & it is also named as cantilever footing.

Which type of foundation are used for G+5 building?
KomalBhandakkar
Pile foundation and raft foundation is used for a high rise structure. Pile foundations are more capable of taking higher loads than spread footings. When allowable bearing pressure is low, the heavy structure is present & the site is with a highly compressible layer; then raft foundationRead more

KomalBhandakkar
The kind of reinforced concrete slab is a punching shear that is governed by high localized force. In the case of flat structures, this happens at column support points. https://theconstructor.org/structural-engg/punching-shear-slabs-foundations/17716/ A simplistic phenomenon where a concentrateRead more

See lessOn what basis is the pile foundation recommended?
KomalBhandakkar
Pile Foundation: Pile Foundations is advised only when a raft foundation cannot be proposed because of the excessive settlement generated due to the underlying loose or slightly compressible soil. Thank You.
