7. A -3% grade meets a +5% grade near an underpass. In order to maintain the minimum clearance allowed under the bridge and at the same time introduce a vertical transitioning curve in the grade line, it is necessary to use a curve that lies 200-m on one side of the vertex of the straight grade and 100-m on the other. The stationing of the beginning of the curve (200-m side) is 10+000 and elevation is 228m. a.) Determine the stationing of the lowest point of the curve. b.) Determine the elevation at STA 10+040. c.) If the uphill edge of the underside of the bridge is at station 10+220 and at elevation 229.206m, what is the vertical clearance under the bridge at this point?

Structural components of framed construction

It is a rigid and stable framework of structures that consists of structural members like slabs, beams, and columns that can resist the deformation due to the self-weight and high external loads and transfer the applied loads safely to the substructure and consecutively to the ground. It is made of different materials, such as reinforced concrete, steel, and wood. In ancient days, load-bearing structures were used to build houses and houses were built using load-bearing walls.
