The fundamental principles of surveying are mainly adopted to:
a)
Reduce field work
b)
Improve speed of plotting
c)
Ensure accuracy and consistency
d)
Avoid use of instruments
2.
Work from Whole to Part in surveying means:
a)
Survey small areas first
b)
Plot details before control points
c)
Establish control points first and then details
d)
Measure only boundaries
3.
If surveying is carried out from part to whole the major drawback is:
a)
Increased cost
b)
Delay in plotting
c)
Accumulation of errors
d)
Difficulty in measurement
4.
The principle Fix a new station from points of reference helps mainly to:
a)
Reduce plotting time
b)
Increase speed of chaining
c)
Enable checking and control of errors
d)
Avoid use of control stations
5.
A new station in surveying should be fixed by measurements from:
a)
One known point
b)
Two or more known points
c)
Any nearby object
d)
Arbitrary directions
6.
Which method of locating a point uses perpendicular offsets?
a)
Trilateration
b)
Polar coordinates
c)
Rectangular coordinates
d)
Triangulation
7.
Which surveying method locates a point using one angle and one distance?
a)
Triangulation
b)
Trilateration
c)
Rectangular coordinates
d)
Polar coordinates
8.
Which method is most suitable for fixing distant or inaccessible points?
a)
Chain surveying
b)
Triangulation
c)
Rectangular coordinate method
d)
Offset method
9.
Assertion Surveying should always be carried out from whole to part Reason This method prevents accumulation of errors and ensures accurate control of the survey
a)
Both A and R are true and R explains A
b)
Both A and R are true but R does not explain A
c)
A is true but R is false
d)
A is false but R is true
10.
Assertion A new station should be fixed from at least two known reference points Reason This allows re checking of measurements and improves positional accuracy
a)
Both A and R are true and R explains A
b)
Both A and R are true but R does not explain A
c)
A is true but R is false
d)
A is false but R is true
