Standard template

IRC:73 - 2.5 % (BC), 3 - 4 % (WBM / gravel)
≥ camber + 0.5 %
2 H : 1 V usual (IRC:36)

Pavement layers (top to bottom)

Proposed profile

VIP chainage, level of the grade intersection and the length of the parabolic vertical curve at that VIP (0 at the ends). Paste columns from Excel into any cell.

Enter the proposed FRL in the stations table below; stations without a value are interpolated.

Survey levels

An Excel workbook (.xlsx) or CSV file in either layout, with a heading row:
