An existing equal-tangent sag vertical curve is designed for 60 mi/h. The initial grade is -3% and the elevation of the PVT is 754 ft. The PVC of the curve is at station 134 + 16 and the PVI is at 137 + 32. An overpass is being constructed directly above the PVI. The highway is for cars only (AASHTO minimum and recommended structure clearances do not apply) and the overpass design assumes the driver's eye height is set conservatively...

Please I need The right answer for this question as soon as possible. A sag vertical curve (equal tangent) has PVI at station 212+00 and elevation 540.75 ft. The initial grade is -2.5% and the final grade is +4.5%. The length of the curve is 900 ft. Determine the following, 1. Stationing of the low point, PVC, and PVT. 2. Elevation at station 213+00, PVC, low point, and PVT.

A tangent section of highway has a -1.0% grade and ends at station 0+145 and elevation 26 m. It must be connected to another section of highway that has a -1.0% grade and that begins at station 1 + 350 and elevation 40 m. The connecting alignment should consist of a sag curve, constant grade section, and crest curve, and be designed for a speed of 80 km/h. What is the lowest grade possible for the constant grade section that...

The PVI of a vertical curve is at station 110 + 00 and elevation 1100.00 ft. The vertical curve is equal tangent, 600ft long, and connects an initial grade of +1.30% and a final grade of –1.10%. The vertical curve crosses a 3ft diameter pipe at right angles. The pipe is located at station 112 + 00 and its centerline is at elevation 1093.00 ft. a) Using offsets, determine the depth, below the surface of the curve, to the top...
