Question

this is one question split by parts a and b.

If G1=2 % and G2=-4%, the required vertical curve is a crest curve.
O True
O False
QUESTION 5
A vertical curve is needed to join to tangents; G₁-2% and G₂-5%. Assuming the worst case scenario for braking, and the AASHTO
recommended values for deceleration and perception-reaction time, calculate the minimum length of curve (ft) needed to satisfy the comfort
criteria. The design speed is 50 mph.
