A sewer is laid from a manhole A to a manhole B, 250 m away along a gradient of 1 in 125. If the reduced level of the invert at A is 205.75 m and the height of the boning rod is 3 m, the reduced level of the sight rail at B, is
208.75 m
202.75 m
206.75 m
211.75 m

Can you explain it?

Answer C. 206.75.

205.75 - 1*250/125 = 206.75 m.

Atul Patel said:   8 years ago
205.75 - 1 * 205/125 = 203.75,
203.75 + 3 = 206.75.

Why added 3 to 203.75?

Karthik said:   8 years ago
@Arun

3 is the height of boring rod.

Piku said:   8 years ago
205.75-(1 * 250/150)+3 = 206.75.

Gaurav said:   8 years ago
Gradient is downward.

Chadha said:   8 years ago
205.75 - (250*1/125-3)= 206.75.

Please explain the solution.

RL of invert at B.

= 205.75 - (250 ÷ 125) = 203.75.
RL of sight at B = 203.75+3 = 206.75.
