Cut and Fill App

An app for computing how much cut or fill is required at two slope end points.

Whiles working on a landscaping project, I observed the difficulty in computation of cut and fill amounts. The survey assistant had to always calculate using pen and paper and I made my mind I was going to develop an app which could make our lives easier. So the birth of CutandFill app is highly motivated by the need to reduce the time spent on the field computing what should be written on the stakes.

CutandFill app allows the user to apply simple height differences read from levelling staves (Neufert, 1980, page 436). The app makes use of few but recommended grades for landscaping. This is a user-friendly app which the user, most likely a surveyor or engineer will find to be handy while doing setting of pegs for grading a larger area.
