Textbook Question
Chapter 1, Problem 32P

A civil engineer needs to establish the elevation of the cornerstone for a building located between Iwo benchmarks, B1 and B2, of known elevations, as shown in

Chapter 1, Problem 32P, A civil engineer needs to establish the elevation of the cornerstone for a building located between

The elevation E along the grade satisfies the linear relationship

E = m l + E 1 (1.20) where El is the elevation of B 1, l is the taped distance from B1 along the grade, and in is the rate of change of E with respect to l.

(a) Find the equation of the line E and determine the slope of the linear relationship.

(b) Using the equation of the line from part (a), find the elevation of the cornerstone E* if it is located at a distance l = 300 in from B1.

(c) Sketch the graph of £ as a function of l and clearly indicate both the slope in and elevation E 1 of 81.
