Question 1

What does the deflection angle represent in curve design?

  • A straight line measurement
  • The angle between two tangents
  • The radius of the curve

💡 Hint: Think about how paths transition geometrically.

Question 2

True or False: The midpoint of a curve is the same as the beginning of the tangent.

  • True
  • False

💡 Hint: Visualization of curves will help clarify this.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Given a deflection angle of 75° and a curve radius of 100 m, calculate the tangent lengths and offsets required to set out the curve.

💡 Hint: Employ trigonometric relationships to derive the details.

Question 2

If the mid-point offset on a different radius of 120 m is 15 m, determine how this changes if the deflection angle increases to 80°.

💡 Hint: Consider how angular changes can affect distances.
