LEVEL PROTRACTOR
Protractor with a level in the center and which rotates on a fixture with a base, to determine the amount of angle deviation from level.

LEVEL ROD
Used along with a transit or builder's level a rod marked with graduated markings is used to measure the differences in elevations. Markings can be had in feet, tenths, hundredths meters, decimeters and centimeters and are in heights up to 25 feet. For greater accuracy, a leveling rod may have a target with markings graduated in one thousandth of a foot on the Vernier scale attached.

LEVEL, BUILDER'S
Used for verifying elevations and the level of reference points on a job site, a builder's level is comprised of a telescope with a movable mounting ring and a bubble level.

LEVEL, DUMPY
Level that has a telescope and leveling vial mounted on a rotating plate. Sight is taken through the telescope so that the point on the graduated rod that is level to the telescope can be found. The telescope is leveled using the leveling vial and then the crosshairs are lined up to a point on the rod.

LEVEL, LASER
Device consisting of a laser transmitter and a laser receiver on a vertical rod, which has measuring marks along the length of its side.

LEVEL, OPTICAL
Telescope, mounted on a tripod for stability, having cross hairs in the viewer and an ability to rotate 360 degrees.

LEVEL, STRING
Level that has hook and is light enough to be attached to the line that stretches between points to be measured.

LEVEL, TRANSIT
Form of builder's level, consisting of a telescope and leveling vial, which can take horizontal and vertical angle measurement, establishing elevations for building sites.

LEVELING
Quality in paint that allows the surface to flow freely and to avoid brush marks.

LEVELING BED
Mortar bed with pavers set into it.
