Methods for measurement of earthwork:
1. Mid Section method 2. Trapezoidal Method 3. Prismoidal Method 4. Simpson's 3/8th rule
Mid Section Method:
In this method the quantity of earthwork is computed with the help of size of mid section.
Volume of earthwork \(= Area\times Length=\left\{BD+SD^{2} \right\} \times L \)
