A vertical curve crosses a 1-m diameter pipe at right angles. The pipe is located at station 11 + 025.000 and its centerline is at elevation 1091.60 m. The PVI of the vertical curve is at station 11 + 000.000 and elevation 1095.20 m. The vertical curve is equal tangent, 150 m long, and connects an initial grade of +1.20% and a final grade of -1.08%. Using offsets, determine the depth, below the surface of the curve, to the top of the pipe, and determine the station of the highest point on the curve

Drainage of Pavements

Pavement Drainage holds ample significance, as it prevents the accumulation of water or any liquid on the surface of pavements and ensures proper drainage system. With proper design and gradual slopes provided, the water gets easily removed from the surface into the drains, which are essential during heavy rains and unusual weather conditions keeping it less prone to accidents and increasing the durability of the pavement structure.
