Simpson’s Rule is used to calculate the area of an irregular surface.

The surface is measured using Ordinates (or Lengths).


Area =W/3 { (first + last) + 4 (evens) + 2 (odds) }

The Ordinates are measured at regular intervals along the baseline and at right angles to the baseline in this case the road.

Simpson’s Rule for Volume first you need to calculate the cross sectional areas at regular intervals (The Ordinates).

Once you have calculated these you can then insert the values into the formula.


Area =W/3 { (first + last) + 4 (evens) + 2 (odds) }
