How to drop perpendicular on survey line in land surveying

S.L. Khan, the renowned engineer comes up with another informative tutorial for the civil engineers and land surveyors.

In this exclusive tutorial, one can learn how to drop perpendicular on survey line.

Land surveying belongs to the method, profession, and science of correctly finding out the terrestrial or three-dimensional position of points and the spaces and angles among them, usually accomplished by licensed surveyors, and members of different building professions.

These points are generally remain on the surface of the Earth, and they are extensively utilized to establish land maps and boundaries for ownership, locations (building corners, surface location of subsurface features) or other governmentally required or civil law purposes (property sales).

Land surveying stands for the detailed study or inspection with the collection of information through observations, measurements in the field, questionnaires, or research of legal instruments, and data analysis required for planning, designing, and ascertaining of property boundaries.

Perpendicular offset in surveying - The measurements are captured at exact angle to the survey line known as perpendicular or right angled offsets. The measurements which are not prepared at exact angles to the survey line are known as oblique offsets or tie line offsets.

To learn step-by-step process to drop perpendicular on survey line, go through the following video tutorial.
