Architecture and Planning Miscellaneous

  1. A site has 6 contour lines and the length of the line joining the midpoints of the highest contour and lowest contour is 300m. If the slope of the line is 1 in 10, then the contour interval (in m) is
    1. 5
    2. 6
    3. 50
    4. 60
Correct Option: B

Run = 300m
Slope = 1/10
So, rise or drop = 30 m
Number of Contour lines = 6
Number of contour intervals = 5
Therefore contour interval = 30/5 = 6 m
