In earthwork computations on a longitudinal profile, diagram prepared to work out quantity of earthwork is:

Explanation:

Mass Haul Curve:

• This is a curve representing the cumulative volume of earthwork at any point on the curve, the manner in which earth to be removed.
• It is necessary to plan the movement of excavated soil of worksite from cuts to fill so that haul distance is minimum to reduce the cost of earthwork.
• The mass haul diagram helps to determine the economy in a better way.
• The mass haul diagram is a curve plotted on a distance base with the ordinate at any point on the curve representing the algebraic sum of the volume of earthwork up that point.

A haul refers to the transportation of your project’s excavated materials. The haul includes the movement of material from the position where you excavated it to the disposal area or a specified location. A haul is also sometimes referred to as an authorized haul.

Haul = Σ Volume of earthwork × Distance moved.
