29.
The reduced levels of the string at the consecutive sight rails A and B are 203.575 m, 203.475 m respectively. If the difference of their R.D.s is 10 m, the gradient of the sewer line is
1 in 100 upward
1 in 500 upward
1 in 100 downward
1 in 503 upward.
Answer: Option

203.575 - 203.475 = .100,
10/.1 = 100.

So the slope is 1 in 100 downward due to 203.475 less.

@Ranjan Patra.

It's Downward According to Chain Surveying.

Thank you @Ranjan patra.

I think slope is upward. Because reading at B is less than A.

The correct answer is A.

The RL at B is less the A so it indicates upward gradient. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Guys explain clearly If someone knows well.

Reading at sight b is less, which shows the rise, so it should be 1/100 upward. Therefore Option A is correct.

Farman said:   5 years ago
According to data, option A is correct, but technically sewer is always along down-gradient not upward.
