    The initial setting operation includes fixing the theodolite on a tripod, along with approximate levelling and centering over the station mark.For setting up the instrument, the tripod is placed over the station with its legs widely spread so that the centre of the tripod head lies above the station point and its head approximately level (by eye estimation).

    The term transit theodolite, or transit for short, refers to a type of theodolite where the telescope is short enough to rotate in a full circle on its horizontal axis as well as around its vertical axis. It features a vertical circle which is graduated through the full 360 degrees and a telescope that could "flip over" ("transit the scope").

    The permanent adjustments in case of transit theodolite are:- Horizontal axis adjustment. The horizontal axis must be perpendicular to the vertical axis. Vertical circle index adjustment. The vertical circle must read zero when the line of collimation is horizontal. Adjustment of altitude level. The axis of altitude level must be parallel to ...

    The level staff is placed with its foot on the point for which the level measurement is required. The telescope is rotated and focused until the level staff is plainly visible in the crosshairs. In the case of a tilting level, the fine level adjustment is made by an altitude screw, using a high accuracy bubble level fixed to the telescope.

    A gyro-theodolite can be operated at the surface and then again at the foot of the shafts to identify the directions needed to tunnel between the base of the two shafts. [7] During the construction of the Channel Tunnel , which runs under the English Channel from France to the UK, gyro-theodolites were used to align the tunnels.

    the free length: the non-concreted length. Positioning of anchors and nails in an unstable rocky hillside When the anchorage acts over a short length it is defined as a bolt, which is not structurally connected to the free length, made up of an element resistant to traction (normally a steel bar of less than 12 m protected against corrosion by ...
