Parabolic Layout

&XUYH 3DUDEROLF
The Parabolic Layout screen allows you to compute an elevation at a
specified station, or a station at a specified elevation.
Beg. Grade: is the percent grade at the PVC.
End Grade: is the percent grade at the PVT.
Curve Length: is the horizontal distance between the
PVC and PVT.
PVC Station: is the starting station at the PVC.
PVC Elevation: is the elevation at the PVC.
Solve for: is where you select to solve for an unknown
Elevation, or an unknown Station. The selection made
here determines which of the following choices will be
available.
Interval: When checked, the Current station can be
incremented by the specified interval by using the
6WD 
and buttons and then re-computed with the
Current station: is the station that will be solved for with the
button.
Elevation: is the known elevation for the location(s) on the parabolic
curve where you want to compute the station(s).
6ROYH
: computes the details of the vertical curve.
6WD 
: decreases the Current station by the Interval.
6WD 
: increases the Current station by the Interval.
/D\RXW
: computes either the elevation at the specified Current station
or the station(s) at the specified Elevation.
