Ratio (Example= 4:1 )

Point of Tangency (P.T.)

the point where the curved segment of the highway ends, and a new tangent segment begins.

Point of intersection (P.I)

the point where the extension lines of the tangent segments meet or intersect.

Point of Curvature (P.C.)

the point where the tangent (or straight) segment of the highway begins to curve.

Grade

the slope of a land segment.

T

the tangent distance from the P.C. to the P.I. or the P.I. to the P.T. Both distances are the same.

Vertical Curves Occur In 2 Instances:

when the proposed highway goes over a hilltop (crest) or when it travels down into a valley (sag).
