The following successive readings were taken with a dumpy level along a chain line at common intervals of 20 m. The R. L. of first station was 120-50 m. The dumpy level was shifted after third, sixth and eighth reading. Calculate R. L. of each station and also find gradient of the joining first and last station. The readings are:
0.945 m, 1.270 m, 1.890 m, 0.655 m, 1.355 m, 1.980 m, 0.730 m, 1.675 m, 0.985 m, 1.805 m, 2.150 m, 3.010 m.

A beam AB supports a U.D.L. of intensity W1 and rests on soil which exerts a uniformly varying upward reaction as shown in figure. Determine W2 and W3 corresponding to equilibrium. Note that soil can exert only an upward reaction at any point on the beam. Hence state for what range of values of a/L the results obtained are valid.
