SURVEYING BY TOTAL STATION

As you all know that survey is the most important part of construction field. For any type of construction work survey is needed. But the that is most important in now a days is Total Station and Auto-Level. The types of survey that you have learnt in colleges is all oudated (i.e., it has no use in today's world). It's all about kinds of survey that is used in olden days.

The types of surveys such as Chain Survey, Compass Survey, Plane Table Survey, Theodolite Survey has no use now-a-days. It's all outdated and Total Station, GPS Survey, Auto-Level only are all usable now-a-day's.

While doing survey by Total Station you should be careful with levelling the bubble level. As you all know this. But there might be some points where you should be careful, mostly in the case of undulated ground surface. Then you should have to adjust the spirit level. After doing this then you should have to find the center. All this step-by-step process you should have to learn with a well profession Surveyor.

In the same way Auto-Level also should be adjusted. But here only bubble level is there, not the spirit level. After adjusting the bubble level you should have to find the center. And after that go on surveying, starting with bench mark, then BS, followed by IS, followed with FS.

For every Civil Engineering field surveying is the most important subject as well as in the practical field also. For doing any construction first of all soil testing and after that surveying is done. So for this practical knowledge is very important. And you should be aware of that.

Now the topic is about "Surveying by Total Station". But let me tell you before there are different brands of total station such as South, Sokkia, Topcon, Leica etc. All these have same usage but operating system is different. Because when I used South and Sokkia I had found these two have different operating systems. Because once I was fully experienced with South then I found somewhat different with Sokkia. But the function is same i.e., to read the co-ordinates of different positions and points.

Many Total Stations have various objectives in their usage. All these can be operated by different modes of keys. But the function is same and the data is about finding the co-ordinates. And how to use the Total Station step-by-step will be discussed in the next topic.

How to edit grid systems in Etabs

Okk in the last blog I had discussed about Etabs for beginners. You have got at least some ideas about it. If you have not seen it then click here . But here I am going to discuss how you will edit Grids/Columns in Etabs. As I had said by clicking on "Modify/Show Grid Systems" option a new dialog box appears, their you can edit anything. But you can also do it by different way. On the left side in grid dimensions (plan) you can see that two options are available. One is "Uniform Grid Spacing" and the other is "Custom Grid Spacing". Click on the "Custom Grid Spacing" and you see that Edit Grid Data option is available. Just click on that, and you can edit it as you want by giving the required dimensions in X-axis and Y-axis only. Ok whatever be lets come to the topic. If you have done it like as I have shown earlier then follow those steps. And the one who were new to this blog this is just for that. That's why I underlined with BLUE line an...

MACHINES USED AT CONSTRUCTION SITES

The most commonly used machine at any construction site is JCB where it's technical name is Backhoe. It is the most common and widely used machine in any construction project whether its big or small project. It becomes easier and makes the work faster for the companies at any time of interval. All other machines such as Transit Mixer, Concrete Mixer, Roller etc are also used in any kind of road project or building project. Transit Mixer is used for large large building projects, bridge projects, some kind of road projects etc. whereas concrete mixer is for small building projects. Roller is used for road project and bridge project for its elevation. For any building project the most commonly used machines are concrete mixer, transit mixer, concrete pump, bar bending machine, needle vibrator, water pump and many more. All these machinery works make the work easier and faster. Otherwise if the work is done with labourers it will take more time and less efficient ...

Importing AutoCAD into Revit

So today in this blog I am going to explain how I made an AutoCAD 2D plan and then imported it into Revit software. So you read this blog from starting to end, then only you'll understand clearly. This is all basic and not any crisscross idea or ruthless situation. It's very simple. First you do all the basic steps in AutoCAD, and you know what is that. Going to Format, set up the units and bla, bla, bla. After that making all these set-up you start with the drawing plan. You yourself have created a idea "how my drawing plan will look like" or "how will I make it?" But before going into complex, first you make a simple drawing plan, like this First you make the lines and after that create the room size and area of your own. You are exclusively expert in that. This is the first and foremost drawing plan you have to make. And the rest you know how to make it. All boundary lines, room shape and size, passage, staircase etc. you know it very well. Now you g...
