Book Description
Excerpt from Engineers' Surveying Instruments: Their Construction, Adjustment, and Use An engineer's chain is 100 feet long, each link be ing I foot. This chain is used in surveying railroads, canals, and Where extensive line surveys are being con ducted. It is not infrequently employed in finding areas in acres. It is preferred to the surveyor's chain on account of its greater length, which enables one to work more rapidly and more accurately. When the chain is folded up the links Should not be parallel to each other, but should be crossed in such a manner as to touch each other in the middle, thus pre venting the bending of the links in tying up the chain.

Book Description
Excerpt from Engineers Surveying Instruments, Their Construction, and Use It is proposed, to give a series of articles on the best methods of constructing, adjusting, and using different engineering field instruments. The intention is to make the language so simple and clear that all can understand, and at the same time make it something more than an elementary discussion, and not a re-statement of matter found in ordinary text books and engineering manuals. It is not necessary to dwell upon the importance to the engineer of a knowledge of the best forms of construction and of a thorough understanding of the principles which govern the adjustments of his instruments, and of course the engineer should be an expert in handling his instruments. The Platte Table. This instrument is not properly appreciated by the engineering profession. In a general way it is understood to be employed in the surveys, geodetical, topographical and geological, made by the general government, but it seems to be very well understood that the plane table is both useful and available in many cases in ordinary practice.
