    Using reflectorless total stations in surveying of industrial chimney inclinations
    (2010) Kocierz, Rafał; Ortyl, Łukasz
    The surveying of inclinations and shape of the axis of industrial chimney structure is one of the most frequently carried out surveys in industrial plants. For this purpose, a trigonometric method is commonly applied. However, to ensure high reliability of the final product, the surveying should be carried out from more than two positions. Thanks to the development of reflectorless distancemeters (increasingly greater range as well as increasing accuracy), it is possible to develop methods which will fulfil all the accuracy requirements, while being competitive in terms of workload. In this article the author intends to present methods which could be used in measuring the inclination of the axis of industrial chimney structure. The results of conducted experimental studies were presented, showing consistency of the results which were obtained from the proposed methods with the results obtained from the classical method.
