A 5 degree curve (measured at the centerline of the inside lane) is being designed for a highway with a design speed of 60 mph. What is the closest any roadside object may be placed to the centerline of the inside lane of the roadway while maintaining adequate stopping sight distance? Assume lane widths are 12 feet. 3) A 520-ft long equal tangent crest vertical curve connects tangents that intersect at station 340+00 and elevation 1325 ft. The initial grade...
A 200m equal tangent sag vertical curve has the PVC at station 3 + 700.000 and elevation 321m. The initial grade is -3.5% and the final grade is 0.5%. Determine the elevation and stationing of the PVI, PVT, and lowest point on the curve.
Question 3 (10 marks) A 1,500ft long sag vertical curve (equal tangent) has a PC at stenine 1,500f. The initial grade is -3% and the fina on 3+70 and elevation I grade is +6%. Determine the elevation and station 3+70 and a PVC at stationing of the low point, PVI, and PVT
An equal-tangent vertical curve connects an initial grade of +2% and-2%. The PVI is located at an elevation of 1000 feet. If the design speed is 60 mi/h and the curve is designed for stopping sight distance, then what is the elevation of the PVT, in feet?
Help please 2 (36 Pts) A 4250 ft equal tangent parabolic vertical curve has a back tangent grade (gl) of + 3.6 % and a forward tangent grade (g2) of-1.8 %.

Question 5 The sketch below shows a right-angle grade-separated intersection of a high-speed railway system and a cambered 2-lane rural road. The over road bridge has a soffit elevation of 604.090m and its centreline (CL) is positioned to correspond with the PVI of sag curve. PVC chainage = 1374.486 PVC elevation = 600 m Curve length (L) - 182 m CL a G1 = -4% G2 = + 6% 5.6 m PVT PVC Not to scale PVi (4) (11) (3)...
(10 pts) A sag vertical curve is designed with the PVC at station 10900 and elevation 950.00 ft, the PVI at station 110 +77 and elevation 947.34 ft, and the low point at station 110 + 30 a. b. Determine the sight distance provided by the geometry. Determine the design speed of the curve
A 500-ft-long equal-tangent crest vertical curve connects tangents that intersect at station 340 + 00 and elevation 1322 ft. The initial grade is +4.0% and the final grade is -2.5%. Determine the elevation and stationing of the high point, PVC, and PVT. Solve this problem using parabolic equation and offset method.
EXIT 211 A A 2,125 ft equal tangent vertical curve joins a +2.2% grade to-3.6% grade. The PVI of the vertical curve is station 55+21 at elevation 150 ft. To meet MUTCD standards for advance guidance, an overhead sign structure must be placed at station 55+85. The bottom of the sign will be 18 ft above the roadway surface (more than the recommended 16.5 feet to accommodate larger trucks that use the roadway). WEST 56 Utopia Botlom of sign 18...
4. A vertical curve is designed for 55 mi/h and has an initial grade of 2.5% and a final grade of -1.0%. The PVT is at station 114 + 50. It is known that a point on the curve at station 112 + 35 is at elevation 245 ft. What is the stationing and elevation of PVC?
