What is the difference between invert level and reduced level in a drainage system?

Invert Level is the bottom of the pipe, reduced level is the middle of the pipe.


How do you calculate invert level of existing pipe?

The invert level of an existing pipe is the result when you subtract the depth/height of the lowest elevation/level of the inside/inner portion of the existing pipe from the surface reference elevation most commonly known as benchmark (BM). Benchmark (BM) can usually be found on permanent structure in the surface/ground.


What is the invert level of a culvert?

it is the elevation at the bottom of the inside of a pipe (as if there was a drop of water sitting at the bottom) which typically dumps out of a culvert, or spillway


What is a manhole invert?

A manhole invert is the pipeline running across the bottom of the manhole, from the point where the incoming pipe enters until the outgoing pipe discharges the outflow. It is frequently expressed as an elevation level where this pipeline sits.


What is the two peg test?

A two peg test is a test for error within a surveying level. This test gives a fairly accurate check for the amount of collimation error. Collimation error is the difference between what the level hairs in the scope say is level, and what is actually level. To run the test, put two "pegs" e.g. (PK nails, Leveling turtles, etc) 100' apart from eachother. Place the level halfway between the two pegs. Take readings on both pegs and find the difference in elevation. Move the level 20 past either peg and take readings from both pegs. Find the difference in elevation again. If the elevation is different from the first readings, there is a collimation error.

Is the invert elevation of a pipe related to sea level?

Not quite. The invert elevation of a pipe is measured at the flow line which is the bottom inside of the pipe. The bottom of pipe elevation should be the bottom outside of the pipe. The difference betwen the two measurements is the thickness of the pipe wall.


What is the difference between height and elevation?

There is a big difference between height and elevation. Height is how tall something is. Elevation is how far above sea level something is.


What is the difference between relief and elevation?

Relief is the change in elevation in a region and measures the difference between that area's highest and lowest elevation. Elevation is the distance above or below sea level that a region is.


What is the difference in elevation between a plane flying 25300 ft above sea level and a submarine traveling 440 ft below sea level?

The difference in elevation between the two is 25300 plus 440, or 25740 feet.

What is the difference between sea level and elevation?

Sea level ~ average (mean) height of the sea, with a reference to a suitable reference point. Elevation ~ height of a geographic location above mean sea level.
