Peg Survey

Mining_z01

Introduction

The application "Peg Survey" is

used to establish a forward peg

(point). It is used to control the

intermediate horizontal angle

between backsight and foresight

points. It also checks the

horizontal distances and heights

of the backsight and foresight

points. It computes the

coordinates of the foresight

point. "Peg Survey" allows users

to measure several sets in

different sequences. (The

quality of measurement is

controlled by the tolerances

which are set before starting

"Peg Survey").

Known:

• Coordinates of station

• Coordinates of backsight

point

Unknown:

• Coordinates of foresight point

Front Line Peg

Introduction

The application "FLP" is used to

mark a new line peg (Front line

peg). This application is similar

to "Peg Survey" and there is

only one set of measurement

required.

For a more detail explanation of

"FLP", please refer to chapter

"Peg Survey".

Grades

Mining_z04

Introduction

"Grades" application is used to

mark gradelines along the side

walls of the mines (tunnels). It

allows users to input the slope

gradient and an offset

concerning the grade point. It

computes the stake out height

difference. The program allows

also to map the positions of the

grades points along the

gradelines.

Known:

• Coordinates and grade

elevation of station

• Coordinates and grade

elevation of backsight point

• Slope gradient (station until

foresight point)

• Height difference (dH)
