Question
A parabolic vertical curve having equal tangent lengths is to connect a rising gradient of 1.0% and a falling gradient of 1.5% respectively. The reduced
level and the through chainage of the intersection point of the two gradients are 93.60m and 6671.34m. If the length of the vertical curve is 200m,
calculate the chainage and reduce levels of the highest point on the proposed vertical curve.
O A. 6671.32m; 93.00m
O B. 6685.09m; 93.19m
O C. 6753.84m; 93.19m
O D. 6602.25m; 92.57m
