Question
A road section is 600 m long (20 Stations). The
cut and fill volumes are to be computed
between each station. The table below lists the
station numbers, the end area values (m:)
between each station that are in cut (column
2) and that are in fill (column 3). Material in a
fill section will consolidate (known
shrinkage), and for this road section, is 10
as
percent.
Determine the accumulated volumes?
