  1. Faculty of Applied Engineering and Urban Planning Civil Engineering Department Surveying 2nd Semester 2008/2009 Areas and Volumes Introduction

  2. Areas and Volumes

  3. Planimeters Digital Planimeter Optical Polar Planimeter

  4. Planimeters

  5. Note : the accuracy of the results obtained from using planimeter in the measurement of areas depends mainly on the original accuracy drawn map, as well as on the experience of the operator when tracing boundary of the figure.

  40. Mass Haul Diagram A mass haul diagram is of great value both in planning and construction. The diagram is plotted after the earthwork quantities have been computed, the ordinates showing aggregate volumes in cubic metres while the horizontal base line, plotted to the same scale as the profile, gives the points at which these volumes obtain.

  41. Mass Haul Diagram Most materials are found to increase in volume after excavation ('bulking'), but after being re-compacted by roller or other means, soils in particular might be found to occupy less volume than originally, i.e. a 'shrinkage' has taken place when compacted in the in situ volume.
