SVY3304 -CADASTRAL SURVEYING PAGE 1 SVY3304 CADASTRAL SURVEYING -ASSIGNMENT 1 Examiner : GLENN CAMPBELL Due Date : 26th AUGUST 2013 Value : 10% Marks : 100 Question 1 (20 Marks) This question is also designed to assess your knowledge with respect to several module objectives. The question also relies on prior knowledge gained in pre-requisite courses. Consider the original plan information shown on ‘Original Plan’ sheet attached. Assume this represents part of the information that is shown on a registered cadastral survey plan. Suppose you were re-surveying the irregular rear boundary and your control traverse is as shown on the ‘Original Traverse’ sheet attached. Field measurements are shown on ‘Original Field Traverse Lines and Connections’ sheet attached. Calculate where you would search for original corner information at each of the three stations 12, 13 and 14. Show your answers as connections from the nearest traverse station to the search point, on the datum of your original field traverse. Note that neither of the sketches is to scale.

Question 2 (40 marks) a) As part of a survey you have radiated to five survey marks with the following results. i. Calculate the line from mark 1 to 5 and the offsets for the other three marks. ii. Calculate the line from mark 1 to 2 and the offsets for the other three marks. iii. Calculate the line from mark 1 to 4 and the offsets for the other three marks. iv. Calculate the line from mark 2 to 4 and the offsets for the other three marks. v. Comment on how your results might affect the way a cadastral surveyor would go about doing calculations as part of a survey. (15 Marks) b) A new road is being created through an existing property. The road is to be 20m wide and both sides of the road must be parallel. The southern boundary is based on a curve with a radius of 100m. Calculate bearings and distances of the roads chords and secants. Whilst it is acceptable to use CAD to present your…
