Challenge Problems
Push your limits with challenges.
Question 1
In a scenario where two readings from a Total Station face weigh in at 85° and 87°, calculate the impact on the total height of a building if a 10m vertical rise is intended.
💡 Hint: Think about how much height changes with slight angle deviations.
Question 2
Consider a construction project that relies heavily on precise vertical alignments. Propose a system that might mitigate the effects of vertical collimation error in practice.
💡 Hint: Reflect on best practices in survey technologies.
