Connect the two points with straight


sections. Due to large differences in elevations or
presence of obstacles, the connecting road might
include some turns.

Design the turns. These turns are circular


horizontal curves. The minimum radius of these
curves is controlled by allowable super-elevation
and design speed.

Locate the Stations

Find the elevations of all the stations by


reading them directly from the control map

From the
obtained
table, draw
the earth
profile of the
center line of
the road

On the
profile,
connect
the start
and end
points
with
straight
lines.

When
connecting,
select the
connecting
lines in a way
to have the
amount of
cut to be
equal to the
fill amount.
The slope of
the lines is
controlled by
the
maximum
allowable
vertical slope.

To get the cross section (ground elevations) at the


different stations, perpendicular lines are drawn
in the contour map on all the stations. The length
of these lines is equal to the width of the right of
way (ROW) of the road.

The constructed lines are divided into


equal distances. Ground elevations are
taken at these divisions.

Obtained
elevations at
each station
will be used
to draw the
cross
sections.

Get the
elevation of
the road
center-line
from the
road
profile. Then

on the earth
cross-section
for each
station.
