1. IN A CERTAIN ROAD CONSTRUCTION IS UNDERTAKEN DPWH, IT VWAS DECIDED TO CONNECT A FORWARD TANGENT OF 3% AND A BACK TANGENT OF -15% BY A 300 M SYMMETRICAL PARABOLIC GURVE. IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT THE GRADE INTERSECTION AT STA 10+100 WHOSE ELEVATION IS 150 M FALLS ON ROCKY SECTION. WITH THE EXPOSED BOULDER AT ELEVATION 1102.67 TO AVOID ROCK EXCAVATION, THE ENGINEER DECIDED TO ADJUST THE VERTICAL PARABOLIC CURVE IN SUCH AWAY THAT THE CURVE WILL JUST CLEAR THE ROCK WITHOUT ALTERING THE POSITION OF PC AND THE GRADE OF TANGENTS. DETERMINE THE ELEVATION AND STA OF THE NEW PT.

A vertical road was designed with three tangent lines having a grade of 7.3%, -3.9 %, and 2.8%, consecutively. The intersections of the three lines are known to be V1 and V2 having an elevation of 226.10m and 202.03m respectively. The said tangent lines will be connected by a summit and a sag unsymmetrical parabolic curve which meets at point A having an elevation of 216.29m above sea level. The L1 of the summit curve is 106.73m and the maximum offset of the sag curve is 0.51 multiplied to the maximum offset of the summit curve. Point A is located at the line that connects the two vertices. What is the elevation at the end of the road in meter?

A 627m equal tangent crest vertical curve has PVC at Sta 17+579 and at elevation 155m. The initial grade is 4.49% and the final grade is -6.82%. Determine the station of PVI.
The reduced level at the intersection of a rising gradient of 1.7% and a falling gradient of 2.3% on a proposed road is 52.50m. Given that K value is 55. The throught chainage of the intersection point is 4020m and proposed vertical curve is to have equal tangent. As a civil engineering you are required to prepare the following vertical curve design calculations : A) The through chainage of the points of the vertical curve if the minimum required length is to be used (LV) and the vertical curve setting out data at 20 metres interval. b) The chainage and reduced level of the highest point on the curve. c) Through chainage at highest point was located exactly under a bridge, if the RL of soffit is 57.42m, calculate the headroom based on proposed vertical curve design.
Find reduced levels of the various points on a parabolic vertical curve, which is to be set to connect two uniform grades 0.6% and - 0.7%. The chainage and required level of the point of intersection are 2525 m and 335.65 m respectively. A ssume the rate of change of grade to be 0.05 per 20 m chain.
