The convexity provided to the carriage way between the crown and edge of pavement is known as:-

  • A.Gradient
  • B.Camber
  • C.Kerbs
  • D.Vertical curve

Answer: B

The convexity is called the Camber.

Camber (cross slope) is the slope given to the carriageway from the crown to the edges, so that rainwater drains off the surface quickly. It is usually shaped as two straight slopes or a parabola.

Gradient is the longitudinal slope along the road, kerbs are the raised edging along the pavement, and a vertical curve joins two different gradients.
