Question: An existing tunnel needs to be connected to a newly constructed bridge with sag and...
Problem 4 A 500 ft long sag vertical curve passes under a bridge at station 82+45. The beginning of vertical curve (BVC) is at station 81+00. A-3.6% curve meets a +4.4% curve at the point of vertical intersection (PVI), which is at elevation 425.38 ft. What is the elevation of the point on the curve under the bridge? Problem 5 The grade into a vertical sag curve is -2%. The curve length is 1,400 ft. The grade out of the...
Problem 4. A section of a two-lane highway has 12-ft lanes and a design speed of 75 mi/h. The section contains a vertical curve and a horizontal curve. The vertical curve connects a-2.5% grade and a +1.5% grade. The PVT of this vertical curve is at station 36 + 50. The PC of the horizontal curve is located 294 ft before the PVC of the vertical curve. The horizontal curve has superelevation of 8% and central angle of 38 degrees....
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...
