CHAPTER FIVE
5.0 SUMMARY, RECOMMENDATION AND CONCLUSION
5.1 SUMMARY
The reconnaissance, which was the main planning, was carefully carried out because of its importance to good execution of any survey project or work. Having carried out the reconnaissance, six (6) second order control stations were located and used as connection along the given route. The total number of nineteen (19) stations excluding the controls where the angles and distances were determine by a closed traverse method. All these measurements and the observations were carried out in third order traverse method.
The prominent features closer to each station along the project site were fixed by chain survey method as specified. All necessary reductions and computations, which include forward and backward computation, leveling computation, and calculation of curve, were done respectively in accordance with survey rules, regulation, departmental and project instructions.
Finally, plans showing location survey, profiles and cross sections and curve design were drawn to scale for visualization.
5.2 PROBLEMS ENCOUNTERED
There were a lot of problems faced during the execution of this project, problem in locating the closing control which takes a lot of time and not easily identify as the sand of the ground had covered some of the controls and gave us problem in their locations, traffic to and fro on the site also constitute a lot of problem.
5.3 CONCLUSION
Despite the encountered problems during the execution of this project with the respect to the instructions, the result obtained were of accepted accuracy, these were achieve due to the precautions taken on the field during the execution.Also, at the end of the project, I was able to acquire a commendable practical techniques and skills owing to the fact that this project has exposed me to many aspect of surveying tasks and as well, the aim and the objectives of the project were achieved.
5.4 RECOMMENDATIONS
I hereby recommended that this kind of project should continue because it covers a lot of aspect in surveying and it will even put the school in position to actualize its missions which is to produce qualified and resourceful professionals.
In addition, the school management should make digital instruments available for students to execute their project conveniently. The use of computer should be intensified for the computation, plotting and typing of the project so as to enhance the quality of the project and as well to supply electric power during project.

ABSRACT - [ Total Page(s): 1 ]ABSTRACTTheproject was focused on the execution of route surveying for the purpose of road reconstruction from Oriawo along Ogbomosho road, Oyo to School of Science, Sabo Oyo Town. Stations were selected along the existing route at regular intervals as in the specificationsTheodolite traverse was run over stations, while levels were observed along the longitudinal and cross-sections of the traverse lines. All data were gathered with effective orientation from the controls, these were used to pro ... Continue reading---

CHAPTER ONE - [ Total Page(s): 3 ]CHAPTER ONE1.0 INTRODUCTION1.1 BACKGROUND TO THE STUDYEngineering Surveying is one of the branches of surveying which from the general express for any survey work carried out in connection with construction engineering and building project, it is a large scale topographical map survey which the basis for design of engineering works such as highways, railways, canals, tunnels, dams, pipelines and transmission lines.In the word of engineering and environmental studies, surveying has been recognize ...

CHAPTER TWO - [ Total Page(s): 3 ]Traverse is a sequence of connected straight lines whose direction and distances have been measured. Traverse is also the process of connecting series of lines with known bearings and distances. It is subdivided into first order for precise measurement and second order for the establishment of secondary controls while the third order is meant for survey of tertiary and topographical features.Basak (2000) explained leveling as the art of determining the relative vertical heights of different poin ...
