B1 Linear surveys
Application of techniques and processes to perform a linear survey.
• Establishing survey stations for a given location.
• Using chainage, offsets, tie lines to record measurements.
• Using correct booking techniques to survey in between survey stations.

B2 Levelling surveys
Application of techniques and processes to perform levelling surveys.
• Using TBM or OSBM datum to commence exercises.
• Recording readings using correct booking techniques:
• height of collimation method
• rise and fall method
• flying levels.
• Completion of check calculations on the accuracy of levelling exercises undertaken.

B3 Read and record horizontal angles of a closed traverse
Application of techniques and processes for a closed traverse survey.

• rise and fall method
• flying levels.
• Calculation of recorded horizontal angles using face left/face right techniques.
• Addition and subtraction of angles.
