Explain the average cross-sectional area method of computing volumetric quantities of earthwork along road alignment.
A stretch of road is 100 m long. For making the road the earthwork is to be done in cutting. The cross-sectional area of earth in cutting is 60 m^2 and 70 m^2 at the ends,respectively. Calculate the earthwork in cutting for the road using 'Average cross-sectional area method'.
Describe the general specifications of Reinforced Concrete Construction.
Explain the detailed specifications of first-class brick work.
4. Calculate the cost of 10 m^3 of cement concrete (with 40 mm gauge stone ballast, coarse sand and cement in 4 2 1 proportion). Use prevailing market rate.
What do you mean by estimates Explain the necessity of preparing an estimate of building works.
Write in brief about the termination of contract.
6. Differentiate between the following:
Earnest money and Security money
Earthwork in Filling and Cutting
Tender and Contract
Administrative Approval and Technical Sanction
7. Write short notes on the following:
Contract Documents
Estimation of Overhead Charges
Special Repairs
Estimation of Brick Masonry in Arches
