4. In chain surveying tie lines are primarily provided
A. to check the accuracy of the survey

B. to take offsets for detail survey

C. to avoid long offsets from chain lines

. 6. One of the Lehmann's rules of plane tabling, is
location of the instrument station is always distant from each of the three
A.
rays from the known points in proportion to their distances

when looking in the direction of each of the given points, the instrument
B.
station will be on the right side of one and left side of the other ray

when the instrument station is outside the circumscribing circle its location
C. is always on the opposite side of the ray to the most distant point as the inter-
section of the other two rays

D. none of these.
7. The accuracy of measurement in chain surveying, does not depend upon

 Part B 50 Marks

Each Carry ten marks (Write any 5)

1. A pentagonal pyramid, side of base 25 mm and height 60 mm has one of its

slant (triangular) faces on the H.P. and the edge of base contained bythatslantedgemakes
anangle30 degreetothe V.P. Drawits projections.

2. Three spheres of 40 mm diameter are placed on ground touching each

other, withlinejoiningcentresofanytwoparallel to V.P. Afourthsphere of diameter 50 mm is
placed centrally over these spheres, determine the height of centre of the fourth sphere
by means of projections of the arrangement

3. A cone diameter of base 60 mm and height 70 mm is lying on the ground

with one of the generators its axis parallel to V.P. It is cut by a vertical section plane
inclined at0tothe V.P. Drawthesectionalfront view, top view and true shape of section

4. A cricket ball thrown from the ground level reaches the wicket keeper’s gloves.
Maximum height reached by the ball is 5m. The ball travels a horizontal distance of 11m
from the point of projection. Trace the path of the ball

5. The head lamp reflector of a motor car has a maximum rim diameter of 130mm and
maximum depth of 100 mm. Draw the profile of the reflector and name it.

Guideline –

 Ensure to solve every question in series.

 Do not copy past answers, as it will lead to rejection of answer sheets.

 Make sure to write enough length answers of descriptive questions as per the weightage.
 Highlight more relevant case studies and practice examples.

 Submit answer sheet in standard format only.

 Make sure to be in time limits of submission to avoid rejection of submission after deadline.

 In case of hand written sheet submission please be assure of sober writing and cleanliness of
answer sheet.

 Do take care of numerical and diagrammatical representation up to the mark if applicable.
