An underpass crossing a reinforced concrete bridge along the Shaw Blvd. has a downward grade of - 4% meeting an upward grade of +8% at the vertex V al elevation 70 m, and stationing of 7 + 700, exactly underneath the center line of the bridge having a width of 10 m: If the required minimum clearance under the bridge is 5 m, and the elevation of the bottom of the bridge is 78.10 m. (a) Determine the length of the vertical parabolic curve that shall connect the two tangents in m. (b) Determine the stationing of the point where a catch basin will be placed. (c) Determine the elevation of the point where a catch basin will be placed in m.
