ELEV CAPABILITIES

Elev may be used to calculate elevations from vertical curve and superelevation information. Most of the information needed as input for Program Elev may be obtained directly from the roadway profile and superelevation drawings. The input is slightly complicated for a superelevation transition curve, which requires the user to perform some minor intermediate calculations. The equations to calculate the roadway elevations were taken directly from Caltrans Bridge Design Details Manual page 4.34.
