Question

Calculate the cubic yards of cut and fill for the following cross section. End areas are provided below. Assume shrinkage factor = 0.13. Is this a borrow (shortage in earth), waste(extra earth), or balanced (equal amounts of earth) project?
Station           Cut(sf)                      Fill(sf)
102+00           150.                          150
103+00.          150.                          150
104+00(B)      175.                          175
104+00(A)      10.                             10
105+00(B)       11.                             11
105+00(A)       45.                             45
106+00.           50.                             50
106+75.           60.                             60
107+00.           70.                             70

Answer 1

-> volume of fill is more than volume of cut so it is borrow work.
