Example 9 (Homework) The following set of readings was taken along stations of a proposed oil pipeline: 1.5, 1.52, 1.8, 1.9, 2.5, 3.02, 2.09, 2.47, 4.03, 2.55, 2.11, 3.22, and 3.1. The sixth reading was taken at a benchmark of 14 m next to fifth station and the instrument was shifted after third station and eight reading. The distance between each two stations (from 1 to 5) is 10o m; from 5 to 9 is 50 m and distance at station 10 is o+620 km. Oil pipeline has to be constructed with the same elevation at station (o+620) and with no slope. Calculate cut and fill depths and draw the pipeline profile assuming suitable vertical and horizontal scales.

Transcribed Image Text:Example 9 (Homework)
The following set of readings was taken aleong stations of a
proposed oil pipeline: 1.5, 1.52, 1.8, 1.9, 2.5, 3.02, 2.09, 2.47, 4.03,
2.55, 2.11, 3.22, and 3.1. The sixth reading was taken at a
benchmark of 14 m next to fifth station and the instrument was
shifted after third station and eight reading. The distance
between each two stations (from i to 5) is 100 m; from 5 to 9 is 50
m and distance at station 10 is o+620 km. Oil pipeline has to be
constructed with the same elevation at station (0+620) and with
no slope. Calculate cut and fill depths and draw the pipeline
profile assuming suitable vertical and horizontal scales.
