HILL SIDE SECTION PROBLEM
Calculate the side widths and cross-sectional area of cut and fill
on a hillside section having the following dimensions:
Road Width = 20m
Side Slope in cut = 1 in 1 (100%)
Side Slope in fill = 1 in 2 (50%)
Existing ground slope =1 in 5
Centre height in cut =1m
Answers:
W_(1)=13.33m,W_(2)=13.75m
Cut =28.125sq.m Fill =4.165s
