Problem 3.           A +2.35% grade meets a -2.20% grade at station 45+50.00 and elevation 695.00 feet (PIVC or VPI). An 800-foot (8 station) vertical curve is planned. Draw a sketch and find the following:

a. The station and elevation of the PCVC (BVC) (5 points)

b. The station and elevation of the PTVC (EVC) (5 points)

c. The elevation (on the curve) of station 44+00.00 (5 points)

d. The vertical offset for station 44+00.00 (5 points)

e. The station and elevation of the high point for this curve. (5 points)
