pendiente Explanation: Diría que los tres, "contour, crown, cross-fall" están utilizados como verbo, y prácticamente como sinónimos: "La calzada debe disponer de pendiente transversal hacia cunetas..." De los enlaces indicados abajo: crossfall: the transverse sloping of a roadway toward the shoulder or gutter on either side "The cross-sectional shape of a road surface, in particular in connection to its role in managing runoff, is called "crown"." "Cross slope describes the slope of a roadway perpendicular to the centerline. If a road were completely level, water would drain off it very slowly. This would create problems with hydroplaning, and ice accumulation in cold weather." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometric_design_of_roads https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/crossfall |
