The detailed syllabus for Mine Surveying B.Tech 2016-2017 (R16) second year second sem is as follows.
B.Tech. II Year II Sem. L/T/P/C
Course Code: MN403ES 4/1/0/4
Course Objectives:
To introduce various technologies of surveying on the surface and underground mining situations including distance measurements, leveling, contouring, traversing etc along with descriptions of associated instruments.
Course Outcomes:
Students will get the benefit of fundamentals of surveying knowledge being used for preparation of mine plans. This course gives an opportunity to understand all the techniques of surveying. Students can also get sufficient knowledge on conducting mine surveys using latest instruments and this also provides elementary excursuses using total station, GPS, GIS, data generation, preparation of mine plans in the mining industry.
UNIT – I Introduction:
overview of Plane Surveying (Chain, compass, and plane table-in brief): Objectives, Principles and classifications; electronic distance measurements; Types of compasses, different types of meridians and bearings, local attraction and closed traversing with compass; computation of angles from bearings; declination. Global Positioning System: Introduction to Global Information System (GIS), Remote Sensing – basic Principles, Integration of RS and GIS. Total Station: Description, uses, types of surveys by total station, mapping of sites by total station surveys – elementary exercises only.
UNIT – II Levelling:
Different types leveling instruments and description of parts; Temporary and Permanent adjustments; methods of levelling – fly levelling, differential levelling, and reciprocal levelling. Problems on leveling. Contouring: Characteristics and uses of contour; contour interval; methods of establishing contours.
UNIT – III Theodolite:
description of parts; Temporary and Permanent Adjustments, Measurement of horizontal and vertical angles, Principles of Electronic Theodolite, Trigonometric levelling. Traversing with Theodolite: Principles of traversing, open traverse and closed traverse using theodolite; Latitude and Departure : consecutive co-ordinates/ dependent co-ordinates and independent co-ordinates/ total coordinates; closing error and correction in closed traversing by different methods- Bowditch method, transit method. Triangulation: Principles and methods of triangulation: classification of triangulation system, signals and towers; baseline measurement; calculations of length of base- tape corrections.
