Interactive Quizzes
Engage in quick quizzes to reinforce what you've learned and check your comprehension.
Question 1
What is the formula for calculating the tangent length in circular curves?
- Length = R Δ
- Length = R tan(Δ / 2)
- Length = R² Δ(π/180)
💡 Hint: Pay attention to how the angle is used in calculations.
Question 2
True or False: Chainage can only represent straight line distances.
- True
- False
💡 Hint: Think back to how chainages are established on curves.

Challenge Problems
Push your limits with challenges.
Question 1
Given two straights with a meeting point at a chainage of 1500m and a deflection angle of 45°, calculate the required radius for a designed curve and report the tangent lengths as well.
💡 Hint: Apply both formulas sequentially for clarity.
Question 2
A circular curve needs to connect a point of intersection at 2000m. If the radius is set to 100m and the deflection is 90°, calculate both your tangent lengths and the overall chainage for endpoints.
💡 Hint: Map your solutions stepwise and ensure units are consistent.
