Transcript: 2 A sewer is to be laid at a uniform gradient of 1 in 200, between two points Xand Y, 240 m apart. The reduced level of the invert at the outfall X is 150.82. In order to fix sight rails at X and Y, readings are taken with a level in the following order: Reading Staff Station BS 0.81 IS 'a' IS 1.07 TBM (near X), RL 153.81 Top of sight rail at X Peg at X CP between X and Y FS 0.55 BS 2.15 CP between X and Y IS b Top of sight rail at Y Peg at Y FS 1.88 (i) Draw up a level book and find the reduced levels of the pegs. (i) If a boning rod of length 3 m is to be used, find the level readings a and b. (i) Find the height of the sight rails above the pegs at X and Y.
