These plans are for a level to be used in construction engineering projects.
Designed to
be easier to
operate and
capable of taking
more abuse than
a transit, this engineer's
level can
be used for such
outdoor jobs as
landscaping, septic
tank installation,
drainage ditching,
setting concrete
forms or any task
requiring level or
grade sighting.
It can
be made in one
evening with hand
tools.
The instrument consists of two
major parts: The sighting level tube
or telescope to which level vial is
attached, and the level bar.
It is
supported by a camera tripod with
or without a tilting head. The tilting
head will enable the user to set up
the instrument more easily but, on
the other hand, detracts somewhat
from the stability.
