Find the area of temporary land required for one kilometre length of a road from the following data.(a) 32.50 m(b) 76.89 m(c) 39.50 m(d) 45.50 mThis question was posed to me in an online interview.Asked question is from Estimate of Metalled Roads in division Road Estimating, Sanitary and Water Supply Work of Civil Engineering Drawing

Answer» RIGHT ANSWER is (a) 32.50 m

Easy explanation: Quantity of EARTHWORK in embankment = (Bd+sd2)*length = (10*1.5+2*1.52)*1000=19.5*1000=19500

Area of temporary in embankment land=(19500)/(depth of borrowpit)=19500/0.30=65000 sq m

65000/10000=6.5 hectare

Width of temporary land = Area /Length = 65000 sq m/10000 = 65 m

Width of temporary land on either side = 65/2 = 32.50 m.
