B- Unequal-Tangent Parabolic (Vertical) Curve: Example: A grade gl of -2% intersects g2 of +1.6% at a vertex whose station and elevation are 87+00 and 743.24, respectively. A 400 vertical curve is to be extended back from the vertex, and a 600' vertical curve forward to closely fit ground conditions. Compute and tabulate the curve for stakeout at full stations. Stations 00 00 00 00 EVC (752.84) BVC (751.24) A CVC (748.04) (747.24) (747.56) -2.00% 400 +1.60% V(743.24) >とじ。 Solution: The CVC is defined as a point of Compound Vertical Curvature. We can determine the station and elevation of points A and B by reducing this unequal tangent problem to two equal tangent problems. Point A is located 200' from the BVC and Point B is located 300' from the EVC. Knowing this we can compute the elevation of points A and B. Once A and B are known we can compute the grade from A to B thus allowing us to solve this problem as two equal tangent curves. Point A STA 85+00: Elev. = 743.24+2 (2) = 747.24'…
