Unit 1- Surveying

Chain surveying
Obstacle to chaining and ranging
In chain surveying, some times the chainman is unable to measure the distance between two points directly, due to obstacles. Hence it has to be found out by indirect measurements. Basically there are three types of obstacles
  • Obstacle to ranging but not chaining
  • Obstacle to chaining but not ranging
  • Obstacle to both chaining and ranging
