1.10\n the ANSWER BOOK.

1.1A surveyor should be a registered professional with relevant qualities.

1.2Setting out is the placing of pegs in the ground to mark out limits for a structure.

1.3Bearings cannot be obtained to a greater accuracy than 5 or 10

1.4A p lane survey covers a relatively small area to the extent that the curvature of the earth is ignored.

1.5At all times more than one additional known point must be sighted to check the orientation setting.

1.6Try to keep lines of sight close to the ground to minimise the effects of irregular refraction.

1.7For close work, such as traversing and setting out, a ranging rod is better than tacheometric staff.

1.8Always orient on the closest possible points, consistent with good visibility.

1.9Always orient on an object that can be sighted with the most accuracy.

About Building And Strucutral Surveying examination preparation

This TVET examination resource can be used as part of a structured revision programme. Past papers are most useful when learners attempt questions independently, work within a realistic time limit, and review their answers afterwards.

How to use this resource for revision

A TVET past examination paper is most useful when it is treated as an active revision exercise. Try the questions yourself before checking the corresponding memorandum. Where you make an error, identify the reason — was it a knowledge gap, a calculation mistake, an interpretation issue, or an examination technique problem?

For stronger examination practice, complete the paper without unnecessary interruptions and keep track of the questions that take the most time. Afterwards, review the memorandum and separate knowledge gaps from mistakes caused by interpretation, calculation, structure, or examination technique.

A practical revision approach

Start by completing the resource without looking at the memorandum. Review incorrect and incomplete answers afterwards and make a short revision list based on the areas that caused difficulty.
