You are required to set up a vertical curve for a highway alignment. Gradient of the backward and forward tangents are 5% and -3%, respectively. The stations of the beginning of the vertical curve (BVC) and the end of the vertical curve (EVC) are 100 00 and 112 00 (ft), respectively. Elevation of EVC is 260.00 ft. Please calculate 1. Station of Point of vertical intersection (PVI). 2. Elevations of the curve at 110 00. 3. Station and elevation of the point in the curve that has the maximum elevation. 4. Tangent offset (distance from the tangent to the curve) at the point calculated in (b).
