The centerline of a proposed road cross section across a smallvalley between station 14+042 (elevation 123.00m) and station 14+080 (elevation 122.50 m). The stationing at the bottom of the valley is 14+057 (elev.111.2). The grade line of the proposed road passes the ground points at the edges of the valley (Sta. 14 +022) and ( 14+080) and the sections. Width of the road base = 10m with sideslope of 2:1. Assume that the sides of the valley slope directly to the lowest point from the edges. Find the cross sectional area of fill at Station 14+057 Compute the volume of fill from station 14+042 to 14+057
