ENGINEERING SURVEYING

Subject Aim: This subject is intended to: 1. Provide students with elementary theory and practice of control surveys, detail mapping, setting-out of different structures and presentation of survey data in engineering projects, and to familiarise students with contemporary surveying developments.

Pre-requisites Nil Co-requisites Nil Exclusions Nil Subject Leader/ Steve Lam (LSGI) Lecturer/Dept. Learning Outcomes: Students will demonstrate their ability to:1. 2. 3.

Understand the principles and objectives of measurement of building and land. Apply the basic surveying operation and instrument. Demonstrate the accurate setting out of buildings and related environs within agreed tolerances.

Syllabus Content: Fundamentals of Surveying Principles of survey practice. World Geodetic System and Hong Kong Survey Reference Systems.

Syllabus Content: (Contd) Setting-Out of Structures for Construction Curve Computations. Circular curve, transition curve and vertical parabola. Simple and compound curves. Super-elevation and cross-section database. Setting-out for construction of road works, drainage systems, tunnels and buildings. Introduction to Advanced Surveying Technology Satellite Positioning System. Precision surveying and monitoring systems. Aerial and ground photogrammetry. Hydrographic surveying and sounding systems. Survey automation and software packages. Geographic Information Systems.

Learning and Teaching Approach: This subject is taught in the form of normal lectures which is supported with suitable tutorials and field practicals in the appropriate areas. Hand-outs are delivered to students for some of the subjects areas. Students are instructed to consult suitable chapters of texts in due course. Students are encouraged to take their own notes in lecture session. Any problems encountered will be solved in the practical/tutorial sessions or students may approach the lecturer directly. Instructions, introductions and field booking sheets/forms are given to students prior to field practicals. Students may prepare for their field works in advance. Tutorial/practicals are marked and returned to students. These will make up the mark for the continued assessments for the subject.

Assessment: 60% examination + 40% coursework.
