R.L. of formation line of road depends on

Longitudinal falling or rising gradient of road formation

Width of road formation

Side slope in cutting

Side slope in filling

The length of a long wall is

Inner length of wall 2 x wall thickness

CL length of wall 2 x wall thickness

Inner length of wall only

None of the above

Thickness of joints in brick masonry work should not exceed

20mm

15 mm

iii) 10 mm

5mm


2. Explain the prismoidal formula method of computing volumetric quantities of earthwork along a road alignment. 4

A stretch of road is 300 m long. For making the road, the earthwork is to be done in cutting. The cross-sectional area of earth in cutting is 40 m2 and 50 m2 at the ends, respectively. Its cross-sectional area at mid-point of the road stretch is 45 m2 . Calculate the earthwork in cutting for the
road using "Prismoidal Formula Method". 10

3. Explain the general specifications of earthwork in road in filling. 7

Describe the detailed specifications of Lime concrete in foundation. 7

4. Calculate the cost of 10 m^3 of cement concrete in foundations and under floors (with 40 mm gauge brick. ballast, fine local sand and cement in 12 6 1 proportion). 14

5. Discuss briefly the "contract system" for civil construction work. from inviting of tender to the allotment of contract. 7

Explain the various types of construction works as per estimating. Classify them with respect to PWD work procedures. 7

6. Differentiate between the following: 4x3 1/2=14

Lead and Lift

Whitewashing and Colour washing

Spoil Bank and Borrow Pit

Ashlar masonry and Dry Rubble masonry


7. Write short notes on the following:

Technical Sanction

Classification of ordinary building

Concreting under water

Deposit works
