Question
Design a vertical curve connecting PVI₁ (station = 4+980, Elevation = 198 m), PVI₂ (station = 5+990, Elevation = 163 m) and PVI₃ (station = 6+400, Elevation = 140 m) for an Illuminated road with a design speed of 90 km/h. Compute road elevations at 20 m even stations, station and elevation of high point on the curve. START YOUR SOLUTION WITH A QUALITATIVE SKETCH
