A-4.4% grade meets a 8.1% grade at a vertex (El. 135.82m) directly under an overpass bridge having underside elevation of 154.31m. A 5.72 meters clearance under the bridge and the center of the curve was observed. A water pipe will be installed throughout the curve. The pipe has an outside diameter of 0.9 meters and a thickness of 54.8mm. The top of the inlet and the outlet portion of the water pipe are 5.29 meters and 4.09 meters below the surface of the pavement, respectively. What is the total cost of the pipe in pesos if the bridge above the curve is having a width of 15.7 meters. Consider that the inlet is at the beginning of the curve and the outlet is at the end. The following are the cost index and specification: Type of Pipe = Reinforced Concrete Pipes Unit Cost = Php 4,785.93 per meter

The elbows of 22.5 degree were used in this siphon. Find the discharge of the canal. given the following site dimensions. Manning n of the siphon= 0.013, cross section area of the canal = 6.8 m². k₁=0.2, K₂=0.3, kscreen= 0.2, Kelbow 0.05, length of siphon=(15+20+15)m. Sketch the structure with all details.
On a railroad, a -0.8% grade meets a +0.4% grade at Sta. 2 + 700 whose elevation is 30 m. The maximum allowable change in grade per station having a length of 20 m is 0.15 %. It is desired to place a culvert to draw the waters during heavy downpour. Where must this culvert be located? At what elevation must the invert of the culvert be set if the pipe has a diameter of 0.9 m and the backfill is 0.3 m high. Neglect the thickness of the pipe. Please show the detailed solution. Thank you
Q4: A road is to be redesigned using a parabolic vertical curve to provide clearance beneath a bridge (see Figure below). The (PC OR PVC) has chainage 1140.00m, with an RL of 125.536m.

A 600 meter radius curve is introduced between straight portions of a Broad Gauge measuring 1750 mm Railway line intersecting- to form a total deviation of 70 degrees. The speed for determining the equilibrium cant is fixed at 80 kph and the maximum sectional speed is 110 kph while booked speed is 50 kph. The maximum permissible cant and cant deficiency are 165 mm. and 100 mm. respectively. On Broad Gauge Cant Excess should not be allowed to exceed 75mm. Calculate the Length of transition in meters ( largest value) using the following equations stated below: (a) L= 0.008 C, X V (b) L= 0.008 C, X V, (c) L=0.72 C Where : L = the length of transition in metres. V = maximum pemissble speed in kmph. C, = cant deficiency in millimetres. C, = actual superelevation on curve in millimetres Centrifugal Force Resultant Foree Weight Superelevation
