A topographic survey of a proposed highway shows that the centerline crosses a small valley between Sta. 20 + 032 (Elevation 75 m) and Sta. 20 + 070 (Elevation 74.5 m). The bottom of the valley is at Sta. 20 + 047 ( Elevation 63.2 m). The grade line of the proposed highway passes the ground points at the edges of the valley (Sta 20 + 032 and Sta 20 + 070) and the section at any of these stations are three level sections with width of road base of 10 m and side slope of 2:1. The sides of the valley can be assumed to slope directly to the lowest point from the edges.

Two grade lines, SE and EA, having a slope of +4.5% and -2.8% respectively intersect at point E. Given elevations of points S, E, and A at 94.30m, 101m, and 96.5m respectively, determine the elevation of the summit of the 120m parabolic vertical curve to connect the grade lines.
3. A horizontal alignment consists of two tangent lines connected by a horizontal curve, as shown in figures below. PC is located at sta. 10+00.00. The overall length of the horizontal curve is 400 feet and an 8% superelevation needs to be designed for the curve. The superelevation runoff length is chosen to be 240 feet. The normal cross-section is also shown in the figure. Both left and right sections have 2% slopes for drainage. On the circular curve, the left section is on the external side and therefore needs to be raised while the right section is on the internal side and should be lowered. The rotation axis is on the center line of the highway, which is shown as a black dot in the figure. +2% Horizontal Alignment PC Sta 10+ 00.00 R The Normal Crown of the Cross-section Rotation axis R -2% PT Calculate the tangent runout length (/) From which station does the left section start to be raised?
