Discussion:
Same as the first fieldwork, we have gathered our data given
that the field where we work in is also in the Intramuros Walls,
which was still, good enough as the place to do this fieldwork.
In this field work, it is about laying out a simple curve by
theodolite and tape with the use of incremental chord and
deflection angle method. We did it properly because we follow
the proper steps in doing this fieldwork. First we assemble the
instrument and then level it so the data that can be gathered will
be accurate and correct and because we really had team work.
Theodolite was used to help us to determine the direction so we
can get an accurate angle.

LAYING OF A HORIZONTAL CURVE
In this method, curves are staked out by use of deflection
angles turned at the point of curvature from the tangent to points
along the curve. The curve is set out by driving pegs at regular
interval equal to the length of the normal chord. Usually, the subchords are provided at the beginning and end of the curve to
adjust the actual length of the curve. The method is based on the
assumption that there is no difference between length of the arcs
and their corresponding chords of normal length or less. The
underlying principle of this method is that the deflection angle to
any point on the circular curve is measured by the one-half the
angle subtended at the center of the circle by the arc from the
P.C. to that point.
The deflection angle to the next point i.e., b is b for which the
chord length is T1 b. Thus, the deflection angle
Thus, the deflection angle for any point on the curve is the
deflection angle up to previous point plus the tangential angle at
the previous point.
Conclusion:
We can say that our data gathered is accurate by our error in
measuring the length of the chord, followed the procedure
properly, and correct computation.
