Elevation Point Of Vertical Curve Calculator

Posted by Dinesh on

This calculator calculates the elevation of point of vertical tangency (epvt), elevation of point of vertical tangency (epvt) using length of curve (x), initial grade (g1), final grade (g2), initial elevation (epvc) values.

Elevation Point Of Vertical Curve Calculation

m
m

Formula:

y = epvc + g1x + [ (g2 − g1) ×x² / 2L ]

Where,
y - elevation of point of vertical tangency
epvc - Initial Elevation
g1 - Initial grade
g2 - Final grade
x/L - Length of the curve
