An underpass crossing a reinforced concrete bridge along the Shaw Blvd. has
downward grade of -4% meeting an upward grade of +8% at the vertex (elev. 170 m) at
Sta 7 + 700, exactly underneath the center of the bridge having a width of 10 m. The
required minimum clearance under the bridge is 5 m and the elevation of the bottom of
the bridge is 178.1. Determine the following:
a. length of the parabolic curve that shall connect the two tangents
b. the stationing where a catch basin will be placed
c. the elevation where a catch basin will be placed
