The second edition of Surveying and Levelling has retained the necessary components that made the first edition unique. Starting with the basics, it gradually moves on to explain various concepts of surveying as well as levelling through lucid explanations, large number of illustrations, and adequate examples and exercise problems. With proven merits as a textbook welcomed by students of civil engineering, the book will also be useful for diploma students, for those appearing for AMIE examinations, as well as working professionals.
