Book excerpt: Excerpt from New Theorems, Tables, and Diagrams, for the Computation of Earth-Work: Designed for the Use of Engineers in Preliminary and Final Estimates, of Students in Engineering, and of Contractors and Other Non-Professional Computers; In Two Parts, With an Appendix; Part I. A Practical Treatise; Part II. A Theoretical Treatise The main object of this work is to present both a theoretical and practical solution of some of the most important problems of earth-work. The rules given are, however, applicable to other computations of solidity for solids having the same form as those of earth-work; but cubic yards must be converted into other measure when required. It will doubtless be conceded that there is yet room for improvement in the theory of our subject; and that previous treatises do not satisfy the wants of computers, is evident from the demand so constantly heard for something practical. This indicates that a system is yet desired which, though sufficient for the ordinary practice of engineering, does not require of the computer either unusual mathematical know ledge or extraordinary patience.
