Problem 05 solved, Computation of area volumes.
Computation of area volumes. Problem 05 (A) The Following Offsets Were Taken from A Chain Line to An Irregular Boundary Line at an Interval Of 10 M.: 3.10, 4.20, 5.35, 6.45, 7.15, 8.25, 7.95, and 5.20m. Compute the area between the chain line, the irregular boundary line, and the end offsets by Trapezoidal rule Simpson’s rule (B) The table below gives the lengths and the bearing of the lines of a traverse ABCDE, the length and bearing of EA having been omitted. Line Length (m) Bearing AB 204 87°30′ BC 226 20°20′ CD 187 280°00′ DE 192 210°00′ EA ? ? Calculated the length and bearing of the line EA. Solutions. (A) Given offsets, 3.10, 4.20, 5.35, 6.45, 7.25, 8.25, 7.95, 5.20. the values can be written in form of yo, y1, y2, y3 … yn. Hence the distance, h = 10m By trapezoidal rule, Computation of area volumes. Area = (h / 2) [ (y0+ yn ) + 2(y1+y2+y3+…..+yn−1)] = (10/2) ( (3.1+5.2) + 2(4.2+5.35+6.45+7.15+8.25+7.95)) = 435 m2. By Simpson’s rule Computation of area volumes. Area = (h / 3) x [ (y1+ yn ) + 4(y2+y4+ ….. yn-2) + 2 x (y3 + y5 + y7 + … yn-1)] = (10/3) x ((3.1+5.2) + 4 x (4.2 + 6.45+ 8.25) + 2 x (5.35+ 7.15+ 7.95)) = 416 m2. (B) For a correct closed traverse, there are some checks. ∑ Latitude = 0. ∑ Departure = 0. Latitude = L x Cosθ . Departure = L x Sin θ θ is the magnetic bearing of line. ∑ Latitude = (204 x Sin 87,30) +( 226 x Sin 20,20) +( 187 x Sin 280) + (192 x Sin 210,30) + (L x Sin θ) = 0 => L x Sinθ = -98.371 ∑ Departure = (204 x Cos 87,30) +( 226 * Cos 20,20) +( 187 * Cos 280) + (192 x Cos 210,30) + (L x Cos θ) = 0 => L Cos θ = – 87.855 (L Sin θ / L cos θ) = 1.119 => Tan θ = 1.119 => θ = Tan-1 (1.119) = 48.214 degrees. or (180+48.214) =228.214 degrees. Because Lsinθ is negative L = – 98.371 / Sin 228.214 = 131.928m => L = 131.928m. Computation of area volumes.

Solutions: Using Simpson’s rule (Volume of area computations.) Area of plot = area of ∆1 + area of ∆2 – Offset area1 + Offset area2 Area of ∆1 = ½ bh = ½ x 114 x99 = 5643m2 Area of ∆2 = √S (S-a) (S-c) (S-d) AC = √ (AB2 + BC2) = √ (1142 + 992) = 150.99m Where: S = (a + c + d)/2 S = (75 + 80 + 150 .99)/2 = 152.99m Area of ∆2 = √152.99(152.99- 75) (152.99-80) (152.99- 150.99) =1319.77m2 Offset Area1 i.e., Tables 1 by Simpsons rule but offsets are even. So, we shall use Simpsons rule for A1-5 & then Trapezoidal for A5-6 A = L/3 [01 + 0N + 4∑even offset + 2∑odd offsets] A1-5 = L/3 [(01 + 05 + 4 (02 + 04) + 2 (03)] A1-5 = 15/3 [0 + 1.95 + 4 (1.8 +3.88) + 2(2.8)] = 151.35m2 Using trapezoidal rule. (Volume of area computations.) A5-6 = L/2 (06 + 05) = ½ (0 + 1.95) x15 = 14.63m2 Offset area 1 = 151.35 +14.6 3 = 165.98m2 Offset area 2 i.e., table II by Trapezoidal rule. A = L/2 [(01 + 0N + 2 (02 + 03 + ……..+ 0N-1)] = 20/2 [0 + 0 + 2 (1.02 + 3.05 + 1.22)] = 105.8m2 Total Area of the plot = 5643 + 1319.77 – 165.98 + 105.80 = 6902.59m2 = 0.6902hect.

The volume of irregular object computations. Simpson’s rule A = L/3[O1 + ON+ 4∑even offsets + 2∑remaining odd offsets] Problem 3. Consider the offsets measured from line AB to the irregular boundary as given in the table below respectively. Calculate the area contained between line AB and the irregular boundary using Simpson’s rule, with an even number of offsets. Length (m) 0A 8 16 24 32 40 48 50 64 72B Offset (m) 0 2.3 5.5 7.9 8.6 6.9 7.3 6.2 3.0 0 Solution: Here, we calculate the area between offset 1 to 9 by Simpson’s rule and the area between offset 9 to10 by trapezoidal rule. Area = L/3[O1 + ON+ 4∑even offsets + 2∑remaining odd offsets] Thus: A1-9= 8/3[0 + 3.1 + 4(2.3 + 7.9 + 6.9 + 6.2) + 2(5.5 + 8.6 + 7.3)] = 370.9m2 A9-10 = 8/2[3.1 +0] = 12.4m2 Therefore: Total area, A, is given by: A = A1-9 + A9-10=370.9+ 12.4 = 383.3m2 Volume of irregular object computations.

(i) Problem 2 The following, offsets 8m apart, were measured at right angles from a traverse line to an irregular Boundary. 0 m, 2.3 m, 5.5 m, 7.9 m, 8.6 m, 6.9 m, 7.3 m, 6.2 m, 3.1 m, and O m.
