Fundamental Surveying -- Levelling -- Relief and vertical Sections -- Total Station: Measurements and Computations -- Traversing -- Total Station differential Levelling -- Strike and Dip to an embedded Plane -- Circular Curves -- Vertical Curves -- Global Navigation Satellite System -- Setting out of Engineering Structures -- Coordinate Transformation.

This updated and expanded edition of the book includes four additional chapters on earthwork on sloping sites; transitional curves and super elevation; calculations of super elevations on composite curves; and underground mine surveying. Richly illustrated with diagrams, equations and tables as well as examples of every day survey tasks. It also covers new topics, such as the global navigation satellite system’s (Real Time Kinematic-RTK), which are increasingly used in a wide range of everyday engineering applications.
