2. Compute by hand and tabulate station elevations and the 1st and 2nd differences for an equal tangent parabolic (vertical) curve for the following data: A +3.50% (g1) grade meets a -4.00% (g2) grade at Station 12+65 (the PVI). The PVI Elevation = 300.00'. Length of Curve = 750'. Calculated elevations for full stations between the BVC and the EVC. Also, calculate the station and elevation of the curve for the PVI, BVC, EVC and the High Point. Place all the information in station order in a properly labeled and organized table using the exact format shown in the last slide of the Application of Vertical Curves Video. Show all elevations to 3 decimal places. Provide a page sized detailed and labeled sketch of the profile of the curve.
