Method of ties
- The method of ties involves tying distances from two different points on a chain line to locate an offset point.
- The tied distances form a triangle, and the method aims to create a near-equilateral triangle.
Additional InformationPerpendicular offset method
- In the perpendicular offset method, the offset point is located by measuring perpendicular distances from two points on a chain line.
- The resulting triangle may not be equilateral.
Swing offset method
- It is also used to draw perpendicular offsets in chains in surveying and other surveys.
- It is based on the principle that the shortest distance between any two points is nothing but the perpendicular distance.
Oblique offset method
- In this method, the offset point is located by measuring the distances along oblique lines from two points on a chain line.
- The resulting triangle is not necessarily equilateral.
