Question
A steel tape standardized at 25degree celsius and supported throughout under a tension of 73N was
found to be 30.004m long. The tape had a cross sectional area of 5mm^2 and a weigh of 45g/m. This
tape was used supported at the ends only with a constant tension of 75N to measure a line from A to
B in nine segments. The data given in table 1 were recorded. Apply correction for tape, length,
temperature, pull,sag and tape not horizontal to determine the correct length of the line
