PREFACE

This survey report is truly based on our knowledge gained from the two weeks of fieldwork conducted by the Survey Instruction Committee, Khwopa Engineering College for the partial fulfillment of the requirement for the Bachelor’s Degree in Civil Engineering as per the syllabus of, Purbanchal University in the third year first part. This surveying has been able impart us the great opportunity to consolidate and review the practical and theoretical knowledge on surveying, which we gained in the second year. This survey camp has also helped in the team coordination for the long-term teamwork in the friendly environments. This practice of teamwork is a great achievement for future professional work in practical life. This survey camp also developed a sense of individual responsibility towards the steps taken by the group.

We have been able to achieve the true objectives of the survey and upgrade our knowledge in handling of the instrument, working procedure, problem-solving, and field booking precisely. This survey camp gave us the practical knowledge of overcoming the technical difficulties and developing skill in tackling it. It encouraged us to cope with the team members, as the surveying involved all the members equally during the field procedures, calculations and plotting and report preparations.

In conclusion, those 10 days were very much fruitful days and we are sure that these learning and experiences gained during the camp period as a real field engineer will help us for shaping our future career as Civil Engineer.

ABSTRACT

This report is the outcome of 15 days Survey Camp 2076 organized by the Survey Instruction Committee, Department of Civil Engineering, Khwopa  Engineering  College for the students of the 074 BCE batch as per the Syllabus of BCE. The camp was held at Nepal Electricity Authority Training Centre (NEATC), Kharipati. The Survey Camp provided us an opportunity to gain and update our theoretical and practical knowledge of survey engineering in actual fieldwork. The major part of the survey camp was covered by topographic surveying, and then road alignment and bridge site surveys follow it. All the technical requirements had to be fulfilled within the given time limit. In this regard, we carried out the necessary field works as a team. This provided us the opportunity to make decisions regarding the planning and execution of field works for the preparation of the topographic map, road alignment survey, and bridge site survey. The survey camp has helped us build our confidence to conduct engineering surveys with the required precision and within the prescribed time limit.

A summary of the survey and its details have been presented in this report.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

We would like to express our sincere gratitude to the Department of Civil Engineering, Khwopa Engineering College, Purbanchal University, and the Survey Instruction Committee for initiating and facilitating the survey camp to enhance our knowledge of surveying and its applications.

We express my sincere gratitude to Er. SujanMaka, Principal of KhwopaEngineering College, Er. Amit Shankar Ranjit, Head of Civil Engineering Department, for their kind help and assistance.

We are also indebted to our Coordinator of Survey Instruction Committee and course instructor Er. Shyam Sundar Basukalafor assisting, suggesting, motivating, and supervising in every aspect of our study. Without his help, this study would probably be impossible.

We also express our deep sense of gratitude. Umesh Sukamani, Er.SarojPhaiju, Er.RazimGanesh, Er.Mina Baidhya,Er Jeetendra Prajapati, Er. Umesh Sukamani, Er. Bibek Thapa, Er. Anusa Danegulu, Er. Sulok Wagle, Er. Supriya Shrestha, Ms. Samjhana Rajbhandari, Mr. Shiva Hari Pokhrel, and Mr. Janak Singh Tamangfor their tremendous effort in helping us in the survey camp by providing all the help and support while doing fieldwork, calculations as well as preparing this complete report.

We would also like to give thanks to all the non-teaching staff of the Survey Instruction Committee for making our work at Nepal Electricity Authority Training Centre (NEATC), Kharipati a success. We are also grateful to Nepal Electricity Authority Training Center (NEATC), Kharipati for arranging and maintaining a safe and comfortable environment to conduct our work smoothly.

We put our sincere thanks to our friends and colleagues for their support and help. We would like to thank the college administration. Lastly, we would like to thank everyone who helped us directly or indirectly during the duration of the survey camp and in the preparation of this report. Their effort and sincerity on the field are always memorable to us.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

The survey camp was organized for the B.E Civil 3rd year students by the Survey Instruction Committee, Khwopa Engineering College, at Nepal Electricity Authority Training Centre, Kharipati, Bhaktapur dated from 2077/12/07 - 2077/12/16. The working time was mostly 6:00 A.M to 6:00 P.M. Daily classes to discuss the daily progress work and for next day schedule was also conducted. Major works and their executive summary can be presented as follows:

a)     Levelling:

Before leveling work, the two-peg test was procured and a corresponding correction was made. The leveling was done in three ways:

  • Transfer of RL from BM to CP1
  • Transfer of RL from CP1 to a major station
  • Transfer of RL from CP1to minor station
b)     Road alignment:

                  Objectives:

v To make an L-section, X-section, and topographic map of the area of the site.                  

Location:

v Bhaktapur, Kharipati

     Salient feature:

v Total no of IP station =16

v  Map scale = 1:500

v  Contour Interval= 1m interval

v Cross section at every 20m, minimum 10m left and right details.

c)     Topographic Survey:

Objective:

Ø  To make the topographic map with keeping in mind each and every requirement of the engineering map.

Location:

Ø  NEA training center and its premises.

Salient Features:

Ø  Total Numbers of major traverse stations = 18

Ø  Total numbers of minor traverse stations =5

Ø  Contour Interval = 1m

Ø  Scale of map = 1:500

Ø  Instrument Used = Total station.

 

d)     Other minor works:
  • Intersection and Resection.
  • Trigonometric Levelling.
