Question
  1. use of stadia reduction tables. From an instrument station a backsight was made on a turning point and the following data were obtained:

 

Upper stadia hair reading = 1.745m

Rod reading = 1.495m

Lower stadia hair reading = 1.245m

Stadia constant = 0.381m

Stadia interval factor = 95.5m

Observed vertical angle = -15 30’

Height of instrument above occupied station = 1.495m

Elevation of turning point = 463.24m

 

Determine the elevation of the instrument station using values taken from stadia reduction tables.
