In which one of the following systems the optimum road length is
calculated for an area
based on the concept of obtaining maximum utility per unit length of
road?
(a) Saturation system
(b) Unsaturated system
(c) Minimum utility system
(d) Average utility system
(A)
Which one of the following alignments is obtained by development
accompanied by tunneling?
(a) Valley alignment
(b) Cross country alignment
(c) Mountain alignment
(d) Zig-zag alignment
(C)
The alignment of a tunnel constructed as part of a development project would depend
on various factors, such as the topography of the area, the geological conditions, and
the tunnel's purpose. A zig-zag alignment would not typically be used in tunnel
construction, as it would increase construction costs and complexity without providing
significant benefits. A "Mountain Alignment" typically refers to a tunnel alignment that
follows the contour of a mountain or hill. This type of alignment is often used when a
tunnel is needed to bypass a mountainous area or provide access to resources within
a mountain. However, it is important to note that the alignment chosen for a tunneling
project would depend on a wide range of factors, such as the area's geology, the
presence of other infrastructure, and the project's specific needs.
