METHOD FOR GRADING DESIGN OF HIGHWAYS

A grading plan, developed by a process of assumption, trial, and adjustment, is useful for checking and possibly modifying alignments, profiles, cross sections, drainage facilites, structures, and other parts of the design. it can be used to determine locations of needed drains and delinate drainage areas. This paper describes a method of grading design of highways which is developed and applied to a turning roadway terminal ramp.
