Question

I need detailed explanation of how to determine the stations and elevations of the BVC and EVC.

BTW I don't understand how you get in there and what is the (10+19.25/2).

Please I need details of every step, thank you in advance 

Given:
Grades +4.90 % and -1.85 %
Station of PVI = 77 +00
Elevation of PVI = 770.00 ft
Design speed = 60 mi/h
Calculation:
Station of PVI = 77 +00
where PVI is the point where the grades intersect
Station of BVC = (77+00) - (10+19.25) = 71 +90.375
where BVC is the beginning of vertical curve
Conclusion:
The station of the BVC is 71 +90.375.

could you, please, rewright this in more line so I can understant ?

Thank you

I in terms of stations,
BVC station -
BVC
EVC
100
|L = (10+19.25)
= (77400) - (10 + 19.25)
(77+00) (5+496625)
(71 +90.375)
=
(PVI Station -
EVC station = (PUI station + 1)
늘)
(77+00)+ (5+9.615)
(82+9.625)
=
=
76 + 100
(-25+9.625
(71 +90.375)
Transcribed Image Text:I in terms of stations, BVC station - BVC EVC 100 |L = (10+19.25) = (77400) - (10 + 19.25) (77+00) (5+496625) (71 +90.375) = (PVI Station - EVC station = (PUI station + 1) 늘) (77+00)+ (5+9.615) (82+9.625) = = 76 + 100 (-25+9.625 (71 +90.375)
