Figure D–7: Dielectric Constant and Velocity Factor, Short Distance
The round trip time should be located on the sliding scale that is above the INCHES
and CENTIMETERS scale. Place the point on the sliding scale next to a point on
one of the stationary scales that corresponds to the value of the dielectric constant
or velocity factor. Then read the distance on the INCHES and CENTIMETERS
scale.
If the distance to or between faults is known and you want to find the time or velocity
factor, set the distance under the appropriate arrow first, then read the answer on the
ROUND TRIP TIME scales.
Time vs. Long Distances, in Meters or Feet
(any dielectric)
Distances to or between discontinuities farther apart than about three meters (10
feet) can be found on the METERS and FEET scale. Use the sliding ROUND TRIP
TIME scale just below it and follow the same procedure as above.
