An equal-tangent equal tangent vertical curve connects a +2.10% initial grade and -2.70% final grade. The PVT is at station 127+18 and elevation 206.52 ft. If the design speed is 75 mi/h, what is the elevation of the curve at station 121+58? You answer must be in ft and rounded to the second digit, if you need to use values from tables, use "design" values (usually last column), not "calculated".
An equal-tangent vertical curve connects a +3.2 % and a -1.1 % grade. The PVI is at station 100+20 and elevation 950 ft and the PVT is at station 105+20. Answer the following 5 questions Question 3 to Question 7. The station of the PVC is at: sta 93+20 sta 95+20 sta 97+20 sta 99+20 sta 105+20
