Cross-sectional profile

A graphic representation of the sections that are in a linear work, on cutting the axis of the aforementioned work with vertical planes perpendicular to it and defining the trace in elevation. In such profiles, the gradient, the land, the slopes, the levelled areas and the embankments are represented. These sections are equidistant throughout the trace and their number is variable. Its representation is made on two axes, the ?x-axis', coincident with the gradient and the ?y-axis', perpendicular to this gradient by means of the axis of the trace. Inside, the numeric date is located, corresponding to the different points of the profile.
