An unsymmetrical parabolic curve has a back tangent of -5% and a forward tangent of +3%. If the length of curve on the left side of the vertex is equal to 80m and that of the other side is 60m, find the stationing to which the floor drain be placed. The stationing of the vertex is at 1+050, Also, calculate the elevation of each 20 m full station of the curve.
