Soil Conservation Structures

Subtopic: Soil Conservation Structures

Question Statement:

The horizontal interval ($HI$) between two consecutive contour bunds having vertical interval $VI$ on land slope $S\%$ is calculated as:

Options:

  • (A) $HI = \frac{VI}{S} \times 100$
  • (B) $HI = VI \times S$
  • (C) $HI = \frac{S}{VI} \times 100$
  • (D) $HI = \sqrt{VI \times S}$

Answer Key:

A

Step-by-Step Solution & Explanation

Since slope $S = (VI / HI) \times 100$, rearranging gives $HI = \frac{VI}{S} \times 100$.
