Question: An old equal - tangent crest vertical curve was designed with a PVI at station 1 1 7 + 4 5 and elevation of 9

An old equal-tangent crest vertical curve was designed with a PVI at station 117
+45 and elevation of 960ft., and a PVC at station 110+85 and elevation of 927ft. If the highest point
on the curve is at station 117+65, what is the maximum safe design speed for this curve? (explore and
report your answer in 5mph increment)[hint: Use design tables. But this time, find the speed based on K]
