This is a book explaining the mathematics used by land surveyors during the course of boundary surveys. It provides a hands-on approach to commonly used equations and concepts covering angles, bearings, trigonometry, coordinate geometry and traverse closure. Many examples are given to help the reader understand the concepts. The presentation in this book is intended to be as simplified as possible and the author has attempted to provide clearly worded explanations of each subject. Although a background in algebra, geometry, trigonometry and statistics would be helpful, none of these is strictly necessary in order for the reader to work through these materials. This book is intended to be a companion book to "Land Surveying Simplified", written by this author, which is available on Lulu as and eBook or soft cover.

Although a background in algebra, geometry, trigonometry and statistics would be helpful, none of these is strictly necessary in order for the reader to work through these materials. Many examples are given to help the reader understand the concepts. Computers and software have made surveying calculations very quick and easy. This does not relieve a land surveyor from understanding the principles underlying a specific task or calculation.

This is a book about boundary surveying. It is written for anyone who is interested in how surveys are performed. The book is also for land surveying students who are interested in developing an overall view of how land surveyors go about surveying a parcel of land. It will provide the reader with a background on boundary surveying techniques and some of the common legal issues which govern boundary establishment. The book is designed to acquaint people who are not land surveyors with the principles used by land surveyors to establish boundary lines. The information in this book will be useful to home owners, real estate agents, attorneys, engineers, city planners, building officials, students, bankers, title researchers, GIS practitioners and others. I hope this book will be an important resource for those who have questions relating to boundaries and land surveying in general. There is an enlarged second edition of this book available.

"Surveying Fundamentals and Practices, Sixth Edition," covers up-to-date surveying technology without losing perspective of the need to provide students with a strong foundation in traditional surveying fundamentals. Through clear explanations and applied examples, the text presents the methods of measuring and computing distances, angles, and directions. It provides students with a firm grasp of modern equipment and office and field procedures related to horizontal control surveys, property surveys, topographic surveys, roadway curve calculations, and construction layout surveys. The sixth edition offers students a "user-friendly" text that they will be able to rely on as a meaningful learning tool in class and at home. Plus! A companion student website, "MyConstructionKit," is now available! MyConstructionKit is an online resource that offers a wealth of study tools to engage students for a variety of Pearson construction management, architecture, and civil engineering technology textbooks!
