Methods for the Computation From Diagrams of Preliminary and Final Estimates of Railway Earthwork by Arthur Mellen Wellington offers a detailed guide to calculating earthwork quantities for railway construction. This classic work provides practical methods and diagrams for estimating volumes directly from field notes, simplifying the complex calculations involved in railway engineering. The book includes diagrams that allow for quick estimation of quantities to the nearest cubic yard, catering to both regular and irregular sections. This resource is invaluable for civil engineers, surveyors, and anyone involved in the planning and construction of railway systems. Wellington’s clear explanations and practical approach make this a timeless reference for accurate and efficient earthwork estimation.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
