A vertical summit curve is having tangents which intersects at point Pl at Station 12+428.3 and 142.75 meters elevation. The grade for the forward tangent is -3.7%. Station PC is at station 12+101.2 and having an elevation of 124.46 meters. Determine the thickness of soil in meters as backfill to cover a sewage pipe having an outside diameter of 2.7 meters and a thickness of 77mm. The elevation of the pipe on center is 123.48 and the location is at Sta 12+232.5.

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.
