Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book presents the results of precise levelling by the Geodetic Survey of Canada for certain lines in the provinces of Ontario and Quebec, with index and map showing all work previously published. The results of the levelling are given in three tables. The first indicates the routes followed between terminal points and gives complete descriptions of all bench marks established along these routes. The second and third show the elevations determined for these bench marks and for certain bench marks established by other surveys and connected with the former. The closing errors of lines 4, 5, and 7 have been disposed of by distributing them as corrections along line 1. The policy of disposing the closing errors and adjusting the new levelling to the old has been adopted for this work because, although the lines form loops around the western portions of the city of Toronto, there are discrepancies at the different junction points, and until an adjustment is made of the entire level net-work of the country it seems better, pending an adjustment, to eliminate the closing errors and avoid discordant elevations at the junction bench marks. The bench marks are described in full so as to facilitate their recovery should they be disturbed or destroyed. This book will be useful to engineers and surveyors and to any interested in the levelling of this region. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781528010610_0
