Answer:

  16.43 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

If the shape of the rise is a triangle, then the center of it is half the total length from the end. We can find the rise (y) using the Pythagorean theorem:

  1500.09² = 1500² +y² . . . . .dimensions in meters

  270.0081 = y²

  y = √270.0081 ≈ 16.43 . . . . meters

About the most it would rise is 16.43 meters.

___

If the shape is an arc of a circle, the height is about 14.2 meters.
