3- A level was set up exactly mid-way between two pegs A and B lying 100m apart and the following reading were obtained:
Reading at A=1.3m at B=1.7m
The instrument was then set over A and the following readings were obtained
Height of level at A=1.75m
Reading at B=2.1m
a) Calculate the collimation error of the level and express it as an angle of elevation and depression.
b) The level was used in a levelling process, It was used to measure points x and Y. and the following readings were observed: Reading at x=2.98m Reading at Y=3.44m. Find the corrected readings on both stations if the instrument had a collimation error of
3 - A level was set up exactly mid - way between
