Enter any three values — the fourth is solved automatically. On the profile, drag either point up/down.
sta
Accepts 10+00 or 1000 format — ending station is computed from distance
sta
Type any station (10+00 or 1000) and its elevation is computed on the grade line — even beyond the run, projected on the same grade. Needs a starting elevation and a grade (or two elevations); with no starting station, enter distance from the start (ft). Works with just starting elevation + slope, no distance needed.

Results
Fill in any three fields. Example: starting elevation + slope + distance → ending elevation.
Profile (vert. exaggerated)
Drag the square (start) or round (end) marker up or down — elevations and grade update live. Distance stays fixed; slope is recalculated.
Station Table
Parabolic curve from PVI, grades in/out, and length. Stations accept 12+50 or 1250. Drag the orange probe along the curve.

Curve Data
Enter PVI station & elevation, both grades, and curve length.
Curve Profile (vert. exaggerated)
Dashed lines are the tangent grades. Drag the orange probe to read elevation at any station.
Staking Table
Even stations from BVC to EVC, plus key points.
Circular curve: enter Δ plus any one element — the rest are solved. Δ accepts decimal degrees or DMS (45 30 15, 45°30'15").

Curve Data
Enter Δ and one element (R, D, T, L, or C).
Plan View (true proportions)
Dashed lines: tangents and long chord. Drag the orange probe along the arc to read arc distance, deflection, and chord from PC.
Deflection / Staking Table
Deflections and chords from the PC.
Pick a category, enter a value, choose its unit — the full table converts live. Angle accepts DMS (45 30 15).
Rational Method per CCC FC&WCD: Q = Cf · C · i · A. Intensity computed from the District's IDF workbook (2023-04-06) using MSP from the B-166 isohyet map.
