I keep a box of milk bones in the truck for dealing with mean dogs. Maybe something similar would work here. “Hey buddy here’s $20 why don’t you go to...
I do generally hold the monuments when they exist, and I try to hold whatever element appears to be the defining element of the curve, which per Wattl...
I don’t say that a curve is to the left or right in a description, I state its direction of concavity “… to the beginning of a curve concave to the so...
If it’s inside the line on the firm map delineating the flood zone it’s in the flood zone regardless of elevation. If it’s above the bfe, then a loma ...
I have 3 good ones, but first I'd like to thank GaryG for digging up my favorite Simpsons quote, and I'd like to point out that grandpa Simpsons' 40 r...
Quick reference guide:
Believe it or not, I have located a quick reference guide. It's not in the best of shape, kinda crumpled up at the bottom of the instrument box. I've ...
I've had the CFedS since 2012. I can say that the coursework is outstanding, and has made me a better surveyor overall. That alone has made it worth w...
I'm more of an old school HP-67 guy, but I think I'm right in this when I say, it's not the letter I, it's the indirect address register (I), which is...
Yes join plso! Also note the blue mountain chapter has a workshop scheduled for next Saturday 11-19-22. Great speakers and great topics planned!
If you can't look at things you've done in the past and find things you might disagree with now, you've either (a) not done much in the past or (b) no...
Also note it??s a 6? stainless steel cap, just to add to the sarcasm.?ÿ
@holy-cow Hell no! If we are dueling I'm using my chaining grips & plumb bob!!
@bstrand Within 6 arc seconds yes. 33.54' arc length at 60' radius is a delta of 32d01'42". 158.68' arc length at 60' radius is 151d31'42". Add those ...
@bstrand simple they gave the delta only on the overall curve and the arc lengths of the individual segments for each arc, but not the deltas for them...
@bstrand the delta of 183-33-30 is the overall delta of the curves across lots 3 and 4 up to the reverse curve on lot 4
@bstrand you??re saying that there is no 60?? radius curve that can result in an arc length of 158.68 feet?
@bstrand I didn??t say that they were. If you??ll look at the chord distance comp I showed, you??ll see I computed the delta angle based on the arc...
@bstrand I don't see what's leading you to that conclusion. I see a leader with curve info (including a 60' radius) pointing at the curve in question,...
