Intercept on Rod between Two Sighting Wires Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Intercept on Rod = Stadia Distance/((Focal Length of Telescope/Rod Intercept)+Stadia Constant)
R = D_s/((f/R_i)+C)
This formula uses 5 Variables

Variables Used

Intercept on Rod - (Measured in Meter) - Intercept on rod between two sighting wires.
Stadia Distance - (Measured in Meter) - Stadia distance from instrument spindle to rod.
Focal Length of Telescope - (Measured in Meter) - Focal Length of Telescope is measured as the distance from the main optic to the point where the image is formed.
Rod Intercept - (Measured in Meter) - Rod Intercept gives the reading from the rod.
Stadia Constant - (Measured in Meter) - Stadia Constant is an integer ratio between the difference of the rod readings and the distance from the telescope to the rod.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Stadia Distance: 64 Meter --> 64 Meter No Conversion Required
Focal Length of Telescope: 2 Meter --> 2 Meter No Conversion Required
Rod Intercept: 3.2 Meter --> 3.2 Meter No Conversion Required
Stadia Constant: 10 Meter --> 10 Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

R = D_s/((f/R_i)+C) --> 64/((2/3.2)+10)

Evaluating ... ...

Vertical Distance between Center of Transit and Rod Intersected by Middle Horizontal Crosshair

LaTeX Go Vertical Distance = 1/(2*((Stadia Factor*Rod Intercept*sin(2*Vertical Inclination of Line of Sight))+(Instrument Constant*sin(Vertical Inclination of Line of Sight))))

Horizontal Distance between Center of Transit and Rod

LaTeX Go Horizontal Distance = (Stadia Factor*Rod Intercept*(cos(Vertical Inclination of Line of Sight))^2)+(Instrument Constant*cos(Vertical Inclination of Line of Sight))

Stadia Distance from Instrument Spindle to Rod

LaTeX Go Stadia Distance = Intercept on Rod*((Focal Length of Telescope/Rod Intercept)+Stadia Constant)

Additive Constant or Stadia Constant

LaTeX Go Stadia Constant = (Focal Length of Telescope+Distance from Center)

What is Stadia Rod?

An ordinary levelling staff can be used if the sights are short but in tacheometry since the sights are usually of much greater length, therefore, an ordinary levelling staff cannot serve the purpose. But a specially designed graduated rod known as stadia rod is used.

What is Tacheometry?

Tacheometry is a branch of surveying in which the horizontal and vertical distances are determined by angular observations with a tacheometer, the chaining operation being altogether eliminated Tacheometry is not as accurate as is changing, but it is far more rapid in rough and difficult country where levelling is tedious and chaining is both inaccurate and slow.
