A -2.6% grade meets a +4.8% grade near an underpass. To maintain the minimum clearance allowed under the bridge and at the same time introduce a vertical transition curve in the grade line, it is necessary to use a curve that lies 240m on one side of the vertex of the straight grade and 115m on the other. The station of the beginning of the curve, PC, is 18 + 612 and its elevation is 415.81m. a. Determine the elevation at station 18 + 672. b. Determine the stationing of the lowest point of the curve.
