1. A 1800ft long vertical curve with an initial tangent grade (PVC to PVI) of +7.50% and a final tangent grade (PVI to PVT) of +1.00% has a PVI Station at 53+00.00. The PVI elevation is 1234.56ft. You must show your work to receive credit. (30 points) a) Sketch the vertical curve and tangents as described. Be sure to label PVC, PVI, PVT, L, G1, and G2. State if it is a sag or crest curve. (5 points) b) What is the algebraic difference (A) and rate of change (K) value? (5 points) c) What is the station and elevation of the PVC? (5 points) d) What is the elevation at Station 60+00.00? (5 points) e) What is the elevation at Station 61+50.00? (5 points) f) What is the elevation at Station 62+59.00? (5 points)
