Curve 2: A +7.00% grade meets a -6.00% grade at station 4+80 and elevation 705.70 ft, 80-ft curve, staked 10ft apart. Get a rough estimate in cubic yards of how much soil that must be brought in (fill) and/or removed (cut) to create a 14-foot wide roadway that starts at your PVC/BVC, ends at your PVT/EVC, and follows your curve elevations. Make sure to state which curve your group was assigned in the calculations. Trapezoidal Area Estimation is key. ground has the following elevations starting from the PC and ending at the PT; 702ft, 703ft, 704ft, 705ft, 706ft, 705ft, 704ft, 703ft,and 702ft.
