In civil engineering, a cut or fill is where soil of rock material from/to a hill or mountain is cut out or filled to make way for a canal, road or railway line. In a highway project, a distance design is presented below (dashed line rep surface profile and solid line represents the design profile). Based on design, work on the following questions. (16%) 1) Between Station 9+00 and Station 13+00. please specify which distance involves land fill construction, and which distance involves land cut construction Why? (4%) 2) Estimate the volume of land fill between Station 11+00 and Station 12+00. (4%) 3) Estimate the volume of soil cut between Station 11+00 and Station 12+00. (4%) 4) Calculate how many cubic yards (CY) the project will involve for the earthworks between Station 11 + 00 and Station 12+00.
