A backsight reading of 2.56 was obtained with rod at A and a foresight reading of 7.45 was obtained with the rod at the trial point B. If B is located 37.00 feet from the center line of a planned 50-foot wide road, is the catch point located uphill or downhill from B? What would
the side slope of the cut be if the catch point is located at B? Given: Elevation of A is 251.20 feet. Road bed is to be at the 240.0 foot elevation with 2:1 side slopes.
