What is plan and elevation in engineering graphics?

"Elevation" is an architect's term for what an engineer would call a "side view". So a front elevation would be a front view, etc.Architects use "plan" for what we call "top view".


What is negative super elevation in railway?

Negative super elevation in railway refers to a design feature where the outer rail on a curve is lower than the inner rail, creating a slight incline towards the inside of the curve. This is typically employed on sharp curves to help counteract the centrifugal force acting on the train, allowing for improved stability and reduced lateral forces. It can also be used to manage drainage and prevent water accumulation on the track. However, excessive negative super elevation can lead to safety risks, particularly at high speeds.


Why do you mentioning the boiler pressure in 'ata'?

Normal atmospheric pressure is abbreviated as atm. But when computing for the amount of total pressure exerted on an object at a specific depth or elevation, including normal atmospheric pressure, then the abbreviation ata is used. It stands for atmospheric pressure absolute.


What is the difference between leveling and surveying?

Surveying measures angles and distances, usually in three dimensions. Leveling only meaures the elevation change between two or more points. One of the crudest leveling instruments is simply a hose filled with water. If the two ends of the hose are held at the same height, no water flows out. If one end is lower, the water flows out that end.


How can I calculate azimuth and elevation of the sun or how to find out the position of sun using azimuth and elevation and also is UT differ to be used or current time UT to be used?

It would be useful, almost required to get some sort of Nautical Almanac, which some of the larger Libraries have. Textbooks on astronomical navigation (a.k.a. celestial) would also come in handy as might Corps of Engineers technical manuals on such things as the Vertical axis Theodolite- a most versatile instrument. Get a Nautical al manac, not the farmer"s or News summary types! Good Luck, Galileo Jr! The astrolabe or sextant was designed to perform said measurements. GPS is common, cheap and easy to use, and it has displaced the units. These tools of navigation are now inexpensive and easy to come by. (Kind of like slide rules after electronic calculators became common.) A look on eBay will probably reveal several different units in a range of prices. Use the link to the Wikipedia article on the sextant and see what it can do. To calculate the precise location of the sun, see the following site: http://www.astro.uio.no/~bgranslo/aares/calculate.html For an on-line calculator in JavaScript check here: http://www.learn.londonmet.ac.uk/packages/daymedia/axel/sky/sunpath_calc.html
