Variables

Change in Grade

Change in grade is the algebraic sum of two grades in the vertical curve. It is expressed in percentage.

Symbol: N

Measurement: NAUnit: Unitless

Note: Value can be positive or negative.

Formulas to find Change in Grade

Length of Vertical Curve

Length of Vertical Curve is determined by the permissible rate of change of grade or from centrifugal consideration as appropriate.

Symbol: L

Measurement: LengthUnit: m

Note: Value can be positive or negative.

Formulas to find Length of Vertical Curve

Permissible Rate

Permissible Rate is the maximum allowable rate of change in grade for vertical curves. For railway work 0.1% rate of change of grade is permitted at summits and 0.05% per chain at sags.

Symbol: P_N

Measurement: NAUnit: Unitless

Note: Value can be positive or negative.
