Transcribed Image Text:**Title: Calculating Cut and Fill Volumes for Road Construction**
**Objective:**
To draw a profile and grade line, then calculate the volumes of cut and fill based on given longitudinal section data for road construction.
**Data:**
- **Road Width:** 8 meters
- **Elevation of the First Point:** 20 meters
- **Slope:** -0.5%
- **Side Slope Ratio:** 2 Vertical : 3 Horizontal
**Station Data:**
1. **0+00**: Ground level = 17.55m
2. **1+00**: Ground level = 18.8m
3. **2+00**: Ground level = 18.45m
4. **3+00**: Ground level = 19.35m
5. **4+00**: Ground level = 20.15m
**Instructions:**
1. **Table Structure:**
The table is organized into rows and columns to document the station, ground level, grade line, height of cut, height of fill, area of cut, area of fill, volume of cut, and volume of fill:
| Station | Ground Level | Grade Line | Height of Cut | Height of Fill | Area of Cut | Area of Fill | Vol. of Cut | Vol. of Fill |
|---------|--------------|------------|---------------|----------------|-------------|--------------|-------------|--------------|
| 0+00 | 17.55 | | | | | | | |
| 1+00 | 18.8 | | | | | | | |
| 2+00 | 18.45 | | | | | | | |
| 3+00 | 19.35 | | | | | | | |
| 4+00 | 20.15 | | | | | | | |
2. **Calculations:**
- **Grade Line:** Calculate the elevation of the grade line using the given slope and elevation.
- **Height of Cut/Fill:** Determine the difference between the ground level and the grade line to find the height of cut or fill.
- **Area of Cut/Fill:**
