From station 0 + 040 whose center height is 1.2 m. fill, the ground line has a uniform sclope of 6.5% going to station 0 + 100 with a center height of 3.5m. Solve for the grade of the finished roadway.arrow_forwardA roadway cross section is sloped sideways to allow for drainage. If the grade of the roadway cross slope is 2%, what is the corresponding slope? O 1:50 O 2:1 O 10:2 O 50:1arrow_forward
- (2) At station 3 + 020 the side slope of a road fill is 2:1. The width of the roadbed (including shoulder ditches) is 7m and the height of fill at the road center is 3m. The ground slope 8% upward to the right. At station 3+ 120 the cross section for the road is presented with a road width of 6m. 7.8 4 5.65 +3.84 +2.42 +4.25 +2.50 +2.12 Calculate the following: (a) the area of the station 3 + 020 (b) area at station 3 + 120 (c) Is the volume of cut sufficient to cover the volume of fill?
