    This document provides an overview of conventional surveying instruments and electronic distance measurement (EDM) devices. It describes the key components and functions of a transit theodolite, including the trivet, lower and upper plates, telescope, vertical circle, and methods of centering, changing face positions, and swinging the telescope. Important axes and alignments such as the line of collimation, axis of the telescope and bubble tube, and vertical and horizontal axes are also defined. The document concludes with brief explanations of temporary instrument adjustment and asking if there are any questions.

    Transit Theodolite

    The Transit Theodolite

    Trivet
    Foot Screw
    Tribrach
    Levelling head

    The Transit Theodolite

    Lower Plate
    Upper plate
    Plate Bubble

    The Transit Theodolite

    Telescope
    Vertical

    Circle
    Index bar or T frame
    Altitude Bubble
    Compass

    Centering
    The

    setting of theodolite exactly over


    a station mark by means of plumb bob
    The plumb bob is suspended from
    hook fixed below the vertical axis

    Face left
    The vertical circle of the
    theodolite is on the left of the
    observer at the time of taking
    readings

    Face Right
    The vertical circle of the
    theodolite is on the right of
    the observer when the
    readings is taken

    Telescope Normal
    The face left position is known as
    telescope normal or telescope
    direct.
    It is also referred as Bubble up.

    Telescope Inverted
    The face right position is known as
    telescope inverted or telescope
    reversed.
    It is also referred as Bubble down.

    Changing face
    The operation of bring the
    vertical circle from one side
    of the observer to the other.

    Swinging the
    telescope
    This indicates turning of the telescope in a
    horizontal plane .it is called right swing
    when the telescope is turned clockwise and
    left swing when the telescope is turned
    anticlockwise.

    Line of Collimation
    It is an imaginary line passing
    through the intersection of the cross
    hairs at the diaphragm and the optical
    centre of the object glass and its
    continuation

    Axis of the telescope


    This axis is an imaginary line
    passing through optical centre of
    the object glass and the optical
    centre of the eye piece

    Axis of the bubble


    tube
    This

    axis is an imaginary line


    tangential to the longitudinal
    curve of the bubble tube at its
    middle point.

    Vertical axis
    This axis of rotation of
    the telescope in the
    horizontal plane

    Horizontal axis
    This axis of rotation of the
    telescope in vertical plan. It is
    also known as the turnnion
    axis.

    Temporary
    adjustment
    The setting of the theodolite over a
    station at a time of taking any
    observation.
    It is necessary for every set up of the
    instrument.

    Any
    Question ???
