Question: Problem # 1 - Vertical Curve - Finding curve components and design speed. An equal tangent crest vertical curve connects a + 3 . 2

Problem #1- Vertical Curve- Finding curve components and design speed.
An equal tangent crest vertical curve connects a +3.2% and a -1.1% grade. The PVI is at station 98+20. Due to drainage consideration, the highest point on the curve is at station 100+79.35. Determine the following.
a. Station of PVC
b. Station of PVT
c. Design Speed
d. Offset to the curve (to the first tangent) at the highest point
Please type or write your computations legibly and show your answers on a drawing for the curve.
