On Form of Railway Excavations and Embankments
Nowhere in quiescent Nature do we find earth surfaces in right line planes, or changes in direction of same made by abrupt angles, yet it is the general practice in laying out and constructing railway excavations and embankments to establish slopes on such planes intersecting the natural surface of the ground and the formation level of the roadbed in a well-defined line.
