Horizontal offset given Slope Correction for Slopes of 10 Percent or Less Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Difference in Elevation = (2*Unsupported Length*Slope Correction)^(1/2)
ΔH = (2*U_l*Cs)^(1/2)
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Difference in Elevation - (Measured in Meter) - Difference in elevation at ends of measured length.
Unsupported Length - (Measured in Meter) - Unsupported Length is the length between the support.
Slope Correction - (Measured in Meter) - The Slope correction to be subtracted from slope distance.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Unsupported Length: 9 Meter --> 9 Meter No Conversion Required
Slope Correction: 14 Meter --> 14 Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

ΔH = (2*U_l*Cs)^(1/2) --> (2*9*14)^(1/2)

Evaluating ... ...

ΔH = 15.8745078663875

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

15.8745078663875 Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

15.8745078663875 ≈ 15.87451 Meter <-- Difference in Elevation

Slope Correction for Slopes Greater than 10 Percent

Go Slope Correction = ((Elevation Difference^2)/(2*Unsupported Length))+(Elevation Difference^4/(8*Unsupported Length^3))

Horizontal Distance in Slope Measurements

Go Horizontal Distance = Slope Distance*cos(Vertical Angle)

Horizontal offset given Slope Correction for Slopes of 10 Percent or Less

Go Difference in Elevation = (2*Unsupported Length*Slope Correction)^(1/2)

Slope Correction for Slopes of 10 Percent or Less

Go Slope Correction = Difference in Elevation^2/(2*Unsupported Length)

Slope Distance given Slope Correction for Slopes of 10 Percent or Less

Go Slope Correction = Elevation Difference^2/(2*Unsupported Length)

Horizontal offset given Slope Correction for Slopes of 10 Percent or Less Formula

Difference in Elevation = (2*Unsupported Length*Slope Correction)^(1/2)
ΔH = (2*U_l*Cs)^(1/2)

What is Slope and Slope Corrections?

The slope or gradient of a line is a number that describes both the direction and the steepness of the line.
Slope corrections in surveying refer to adjustments made to measured horizontal distances to account for the slope of the ground.

What is the Effect of neglecting Slope Corrections in Surveying?

Neglecting slope corrections in surveying can result in errors in the measured distances and consequently affect the accuracy of the survey. These errors can compound over long distances or on steep slopes.
