a) Given the cross section data of a roadway below. Compute the area of each station and the
cut volume and the fill volume using end area method.
b) Find also the net volume between cut and fill if the shrinkage factor is 10% (to be added to
fill volume).
Base of cut = 9m; side slope SS = 1:1 (X:Y)
Base of fill = 8m; side slope SS = 1.5:1 (X:Y)
