Academy of Technical and
Art Applied Studies Belgrade

Fundamentals of Engineering Geodesy Course code: OING | 7 ECTS credits

Basic information
Level of Studies: Undergraduate applied studies
Year of Study: 2
Semester: 4
Requirements: Achievement of the minimum pre-examination requirements from the courses: Applied geodesy 1 and 2, Mathematics 1 and 2, Measurement uncertainty, Geodetic plans.
Goal: Training prospective engineers for practical work on the development of construction and other projects in order to provide surveying service to other professions (construction industry, architecture, engineering, shipbuilding, mining, energetics, forestry, agriculture).
Outcome: During the instruction and training students cover various situations that occur in the provision of services to other professions. Technological development of measurement techniques and methods are considered and new possibilities of application of geodesy are found. Particularly, it is insisted on teamwork with designers and contractors.
Contents of the course
Theoretical instruction:
  1. Tasks of a geodetic expert in the fields of engineering,
  2. Phases of construction and other facilities,
  3. Geodetic bases for the design,
  4. Instruments used in engineering,
  5. Marking boundaries of buildings and other facilities,
  6. Surveying as-built buildings and other structures,
  7. Legislation.
Practical instruction (Problem solving sessions/Lab work/Practical training):
  1. Solving assignments in the workbook is performed in the classroom and computer labs, and practical training is carried out in the field and in computer labs lasting for 3 teaching weeks. Students are divided into sections (up to 6 members). Each section receives two assignments from engineering fields (roads, subsidence monitoring of facilities, geodetic networks, surveying as-built state, surveying facades, etc.) Within 6 working days, students carry out measurements and processing of the measurement results based on which they form the basis for a project report. Field exercises cover 40% and exercises in computer labs 30% of teaching content.
