Surveyors, structural engineers and geotechnical engineers may all use instruments to measure buildings.
Some examples:
Surveyors may measure buildings to ensure they are built in exactly the right place and at the right size. They would normally do this using a theodolite, which in it's modern form includes high precision GPS, a digital compass, laser range finder and digital inclinometer.
Structural engineers may use strain gauges to measure deformation within a structural element within a building to study it's response to loading.
A geotechnical engineer may monitor a building using strain gauges and inclinometers to observe it's response to nearby excavations. A famous example of this is the London Underground Jubilee line extension where the clock tower housing Big Ben was monitored for tilting during the tunnelling process and was found to move approximately 12.5 mm out of plumb during construction which was within the safe tolerances specified by the structural engineers. To maintain this safe tolerance a method known as compensation grouting was used whereby a cement grout was injected into the ground causing uplift which counteracted the settlement due to the excavation of material during tunnelling.
The basic weather parameters and instruments used consist of a barometer to measure air pressure and a wind vane to measure the speed of the wind. Other instruments used include a thermometer and rain gauge.
Renaissance architects got their ideas from the buildings around them and looking at buildings and measure them such as the one in Rome COLOSSEUM and the PANTHEON.
the uses of laboratory wares is to measure. and experiment
The instruments are seismographs or seismometers.
Mirror (uses reflection principle), transparent glass sheet (uses refraction principle),etc are the instruments which are used to bend light.
Land Surveyor
People who need to measure height of objects such as trees, buildings, etc.
A landscape architect uses trignometry to measure the height of trees and buildings. They also measure slopes of hillsides.
science instruments and their uses...
ruler, temperature, tape measure, graduated cylinder, linear measurements
themometre
The main astronomical instruments are the armillary sphere, the triquetrum, the quadrant, the astrolabe, and the various kinds of telescopes. These instruments are all used to observe, measure, and study celestial bodies. They can be used to collect data on planets, galaxies, radiation, stars, nebulas, etc.
Making music.
to make buildings
thermostat
They are surveying instruments used to measure angles.
Applications of promethium: - beta radiation source in instruments used to measure thickness of coatings by retrodiffusion of beta radiations - luminous paints - atomic batteries
