Q.15. Calculate the preliminary estimate for a building having a total carpet area of 600 square meters. Extra provision as 10% of the carpet area is provided for walls and verandah. The plinth area rate is Rs. 1,200 per square meter.

Ans. Rs. 7,92,000

Q.16. Calculate the capitalized value of a building having annual rent of Rs. 50,000 and highest rate of interest is 5%.

Ans. Rs.1000000

Q.17. Soundness of cement is tested by ã…¡.

Ans. Le-chatelier apparatus.

Q.18. What is the representative fraction for a scale of 10 cm = 25 km ?

Ans. 1։250000

Q.19. The line which is used to collect the details of the objects in an area is called ―.

Ans. Tie line.

Q.20. The least count of a theodolite is ã…¡.

Ans. 20 seconds.

Hint

Q.15.Solve. 

Total carpet area of building = 600 sqm

Area for walls and varandah = 600x10/100

                                               = 60 sqm

              So total area             = 600 + 60 = 660 sqm

Preliminary estimate for total Area = 660x1200 = 792000

Q.16.Solve.

Capitalized value of a building

capitalized value                    = annual income ✖ year's purchase

Year's purchase                      = 100/rate of interest

                                               = 100/5 = 20

So capitalized value               = 50000 x 20 = 1000000

Q.18.Solve. Representative fractions are a unit-less relation.

         Between one "unit" on the map and however many "units" of the same type on the ground.

Representative fraction = 10cm/25km

                          R.F.      = 10/(25x1000Ñ…100)

                                       = 10/2500000 = 1/250000
