Comparison of Calculation Methods for Earthwork Volume
Earthwork is a fundamental task in engineering construction and an important part of project cost.In order to improve the accuracy of earthwork calculation and provide a basis for subsequent engineering payment,based on large-scale earthwork measurement data,this paper uses three methods:digital terrain model(DTM)method,cross section method,and grid method to calculate the earthwork quantity for two plots.The results indicate that DTM method is more suitable for calculating the volume of earthwork in large-scale earthwork transportation under irregular terrain conditions.
