You should also consider where the crown of the road is and try to set the alignment as close as possible to that, especially when you have a major regrading of roads where you need to show a profile.  Coincidentally the crown is usually at the center of the road, that's why 80% of the time i...

1hr40min now...still waiting..

then im sleeping at work!

staying at work until i find out!

im at 1 hour exactly.

Took EET and I recommend it.  Your goal is to hit ~32 in the AM, don't try to review EVERY topic presented. For me structural was my weakness so I paid less attention to it, instead I try to study other topics to make sure I understand them.  This April cycle had a very structural heavy AM and...

I believe it's the horizontal distance that's taken up by construction activities. For instance, a lane closure on a 4-lane (12 ft/lane), 2-way highway would be a 12' offset.
