Question
Part 2. If a level is being used to determine the elevation of the unknown as shown from a known BM
(Elev = 1806.66 ft). The autoleve is set up directly between the known and unknown with the
distance to each marker of d = 176. If the auto level is leveled correctly with a B.S. = 3.47 ft.
and F.S. = 7.10 ft. the elevation of the unknown is 1803.03 ft. What is the elevation of the
unknown if the auto level is then bumped and accidentally tilted 1.3°?
