Sonic Stringline
P/N 7010-0344
5-13
To inspect grade, use the laser detector and the cut/fill lath or folding
rule. At the edge of the road, finished grade is the same as the
stringline hike-up. Any cuts or fills are immediately measured on the
lath or folding rule.
Figure 5-15.
Grade can be inspected at the 1/4 crown, centerline, or any desired
distance. Just measure the distance from the edge of the road, and
calculate the desired finished grade using the formula [RISE =
(%)(RISE)].
