length
Example1: A distance is measured with a 50m
steel tape and is found to be 1357.40m. Later the
tape is standardized and is found to have an
actual length of 49.96m. What is the correct
distance measured?

2.Correction
for Temperature
If the tape is used at a field temperature different from the
standardization temperature then
correction to the measured length is
Ct= (T-Ts)*L

Correction
forof Sag
Due
to the formation
sag on tape, the
horizontal distance between points will be less
than the true reading on the tape, which is
supported for its entire length.
The correction to be applied is the difference in
length between the arc and the subtending chord.
For the purpose of determining the correction, the
arc may be assumed
parabola, and the
2 3 to be a 2
correction is then given by;
