Highway Surveys and Location

Surveying is an operation in the civil engineering domain that requires collecting and identifying data regarding an area of land and topography. The data that is collected can be helped to plan and undertake the construction process. Civil engineers perform surveys to gather three-dimensional information regarding a particular area. Engineers specify several points on the surface of the earth and relationship between points, and the distance and angles between the points are evaluated. The data from this evaluation guides in drawing plans regarding buildings and structures.

Question

Q. By using the given topographic map sheet;
a) Determine the slope (S) of the roadway. (The slope must be constant along the
alignment. However, you may change the slope with respect to your route if it is
necessary!)
(Note:: The distance b/w A and B is 200m as crown flies.)

When a road is being built, it usually has straight sections, all with the same grade, that must be linked to each other by curves. (By this we mean curves up and down rather than side to side, which would be another matter.) It's important that as the road changes from one grade to another, the rate of change of grade between the two be constant.† The curve linking one grade to another grade is called a vertical curve.Surveyors mark distances by means of stations that are 100 feet apart. To link a straight grade of g1 to a straight grade of g2, the elevations of the stations are given by y = (g2-g1)/(2L)x^2+g1X+E-(g1L)/(2) Here y is the elevation of the vertical curve in feet, g1 and g2 are percents, L is the length of the vertical curve in hundreds of feet, x is the number of the station, and E is the elevation in feet of the intersection where the two grades would meet. The station x = 0 is the very beginning of the vertical curve, so the station x = 0 lies where the straight…
