SIGHT DISTANCE
Solve the following problems below. Show your detailed solutions.
1. A vertical summit (crest) curve has tangent grade of +0.5% and a – 1.0% grade for a road which
will provide a stopping sight distance of 190 m. Height driver's eye above the pavement is 1.07 m
and the height of the object ahead is 0.15 m. Compute the minimum length of a crest vertical curve
for a design speed of 100 kph.
