Explain the difference in elevation between bm and tp2, Civil Engineering

Assignment Help:

Based on the information provided in Figure, the difference in elevation between BM and TP2 is most nearly:

1131_difference in elevation between BM and TP2.png

Solution:

Set up a Table as shown below and insert the known information. 

Calculate the BM at each point to arrive at the answer of 349.20.  Note that the column totals BS and FS provide the total difference in elevation; use this as a check.   -7.48

BM + BS = HI

HI - FS = TP Elevation
