Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Consider a scenario where a Total Station used on various construction sites was found to have calibration errors over three consecutive months. Analyze how this would affect project scheduling and budgeting.

💡 Hint: Analyze the cascading effects of errors in surveying on project management.

Question 2

If a misalignment in the optical axis of a Total Station results in a 10-degree error in angle recording, discuss how this error could propagate through calculations for a structural survey.

💡 Hint: Think about the geometric implications of angle miscalculations in construction.
