1. A grade of -4.2% grade intersects a grade of +3.0% at Station 11 + 488.00 of 
elevations 20.80 meters. These two center gradelines are to be connected by a 260 
meter vertical parabolic curve.
a) At what station is the cross-drainage pipes be situated?
b) If the overall outside dimensions of the reinforced concrete pipe to be installed is 
95 cm, and the top of the culvert is 30 cm below the subgrade, what will be the 
invert elevation at the center?
