Program Name PISTA
Function Use to calculate the PI Station and PI Elevation of 2 intersection lines/Grades.
Where:
EL1 = Elevation of Point 1
STA1 = Station of Point 1
SL1 = Slope of First line
EL2 = Elevation of Point 2
STA2 = Station of Point 2
SL2 = Slope of Second line
PISTA = Point of Intersection Station
PIEL = Point of Intersection Elevation
