9-18. In  a  three-man  chaining  party operation,    who keeps a complete record of all measurements made by the party? 1. Head  chainman 2. Rear  chainman 3. Stretcherman 4. Instrumentman 9-19. In  beginning  a  horizontal  chaining operation,    the  rear  chainman,  with one chaining pin, stations himself at the starting point. The head chainman  then  moves  toward  the distant point to be measured holding (a) what part of the tape, and (b) a total of how many chaining  pins? 1. (a) The 100-ft end (b) 1 2. (a) The 100-ft end (b) 10 3. (a) The zero end (a) The zero end (b) 1 4. (b) 10 9-20. When the tape is pulled forward for measuring  the  next  100-foot increment  ,    what becomes of the chaining pins that were stuck in the ground by the head chainman and rear  chainman? 1. Both pins are pulled and carried  to  the  next  stations 2. The  head  chainman  leaves  his pin in the ground; the rear chainman  pulls  and  carries  his pin 3. The head chainman pulls and carries his pin; the rear chainman leaves his pin in the ground 4. Both pins are left in the ground 9-21. When the head chainman runs out of chaining pins,    what total number of pins  should  the  rear  chainman  have? 1. 0 2. 1 3. 9 4. 10 9-22. Which  of  the  following  devices helps  you  apply  the  correct  tension to a tape that is supported at its ends only? 9-23. Including the O-foot mark, a total of how many whole-foot marks are contained  on  a  100-foot  plus  tape? 1. 99 2. 100 3. 101 4. 102 9-24. You are measuring the exact length of a building using a minus tape. What is the length of the building if you are holding a 65-foot mark at the outer face of the end wall when  the  head  chainman  calls  out “Minus point three six”? 1. 63.64  ft 2. 64.36  ft 3. 64.64  ft 4. 65.36  ft 9-25. When slope chaining, which of the following  information  can  you obtain  by  direct  reading? 1. Slope angle only 2. Slope  angle  and  slope  distance 3. Horizontal distance only 4. Slope  angle  and  horizontal distance 9-26. In  horizontal  chaining  operations, a call of   “Mark” from the rear chainman  signals  the  head  chainman to take which of the following actions? 1. Pull the end of the tape 2. Stick a chaining pin into the ground 3. Measure the tension on the tape 4. Release  his  plumb  bob 9-27. Two  men  are  making  a  horizontal measurement on a slope. The chainman on the lower level determines  at  what  height  the chainman on the higher level will hold his tape by using what instrument? 1. A  transit 2. A  theodolite 3. A hand level 4. A plumb bob 1. Taping  stool 2. Spring  balance 3. Scissors  clamp 4. Chaining  buck 60
