DEVICE FOR INSPECTING AND MEASURING SEWER/UTILITY STRUCTURES
An inspection apparatus configured to selectively couple to a receiver mount of a survey inspection assembly is disclosed. The inspection apparatus comprises an elongated body extending along a longitudinal axis from a proximal inspection portion to a distal inspection portion. The apparatus further comprises an inspection feature configured to slidably engage the longitudinal axis. The inspection feature is configured to extend a visual reference of at least one measurement reference disposed on the inspection apparatus.
MEASURING APPARATUS TO AIDE WITH HANGING OBJECTS
Implementations of a measuring apparatus to aide with hanging objects are provided. In some implementations, the measuring apparatus comprises a housing containing a level and a first coiled tape blade, a second coiled tape blade, and a third coiled tape blade. In some implementations, each tape blade includes measuring indicia and each coiled tape blade is configured to uncoil and extend outside the housing and retract to a coiled configuration. In some implementations, the first tape blade is configured to extend in a first direction, and the second tape blade is configured to extend in a second direction. In some implementations, the second direction is 180 degrees from the first direction. In some implementations, the third tape blade is configured to extend in a third direction. In some implementations the third direction is 90 degrees from the first direction. In some implementation, the third tape blade has attached to the end that extends outside the housing a weight.
Leveling and Measuring Device
A leveling and measuring device is provided comprised of a ruler, which may be constructed from various materials, such as transparent, semi-transparent, or opaque polymers, metals, or composites. The ruler includes measurement markings that can be printed, engraved, embossed, or laser-etched in metric or imperial units. A track is integrated or attached along the length of the ruler, allowing a cover to slide horizontally. The cover, made from similar materials as the ruler, features a level (bubble or digital) for proper alignment and a marking structure with a countersunk opening for guiding fasteners or drawing tools. The marking structure also includes indicia for precise alignment with the measurement markings. A locking mechanism, such as a friction lock, secures the cover in position along the track. The device may be used by positioning and securing the cover, aligning the marking structure with the desired measurement, and making precise markings on surfaces.

TOOL FOR MEASURING A DISTANCE
Embodiments of tools for measuring length are provided herein. In some embodiments, a tool for measuring length includes: a first elongate member having measurement markings; and a second elongate member slidingly coupled to the first elongate member via one or more channels interfacing with one or more protrusions, wherein the second elongate member includes a measurement window configured to facilitate reading of the measurement markings to indicate a length of the tool between opposing ends of the first elongate member and the second elongate member, and wherein the first elongate member is movably disposed with respect to the second elongate member in a non-telescoping manner.
CARGO BOX MEASURING SYSTEM
A cargo box measurement system described herein provides integrated measuring capability at a vehicle. In one embodiment, the cargo box measurement system includes a cover disposed over and attached to a surface of a sidewall panel of a cargo box of a vehicle. The cover includes a channel 1) formed in a cover surface that faces the sidewall panel and 2) that extends inward from an edge of the cover. The cargo box measurement system also includes a ruler slidably positioned within the channel and between the cover and the sidewall panel. The ruler is extendable from the channel away from the sidewall panel and the cover.
