Height for Parabolic Shape Camber Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Height of Camber = (2*(Distance from Center of Camber^2))/(Elevation Difference*Pavement Width)
H_c = (2*(X^2))/(h_Elevation*B)
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Height of Camber - (Measured in Meter) - Height of Camber is the distance between the lowest and highest points of a person/ shape/ object standing upright.
Distance from Center of Camber - (Measured in Meter) - Distance from Center of Camber given Height for Parabolic Shape Camber.
Elevation Difference - (Measured in Meter) - The elevation difference at ends of measured length.
Pavement Width - (Measured in Meter) - Pavement width is the breadth of the highway pavement.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Distance from Center of Camber: 3.9 Meter --> 3.9 Meter No Conversion Required
Elevation Difference: 3 Meter --> 3 Meter No Conversion Required
Pavement Width: 6.9 Meter --> 6.9 Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

H_c = (2*(X^2))/(h_Elevation*B) --> (2*(3.9^2))/(3*6.9)

Evaluating ... ...

H_c = 1.4695652173913

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

1.4695652173913 Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

1.4695652173913 ≈ 1.469565 Meter <-- Height of Camber

What is camber?

Camber is the slope provided to the road surface at the transverse direction to drain off the rainwater out of the road surface. It is also known as the cross slope of the road. On straight sections of roads, they're shoulders with higher cross fall relating to that of the carriageway by 0.5%.
