Question: A vertical curve connecting a rising gradient 1 : 5 0 and a falling gradient 1 : 8 0 is to be designed. The required

A vertical curve connecting a rising gradient 1:50 and a falling gradient 1:80 is to be designed. The required sighting distance is 200m for a driver whose eye-level is 1.05m from the road surface. If the chainage and reduced level of the highest point are 2532m and 100.23m respectively, calculate :-
Chainage of the tangent points
(8 marks)
Design the curve at 20 intervals
(12 marks)
A vertical curve connecting a rising gradient 1 :
