Question 1

What is the formula for calculating the length of a curve?

  • L = RΔ(π/180)
  • L = R tan(Δ/2)
  • L = ΔT/R

💡 Hint: It incorporates π and degrees.

Question 2

True or False: The deflection angle increases as the radius of the curve decreases.

  • True
  • False

💡 Hint: Visualize the curve's tightness.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Design a circular curve connecting two tangents, where the deflection angle is 60° and radius is 200 m. Calculate the tangent distance and length of the curve.

💡 Hint: Remember to split the angle used in the tangent formula.

Question 2

Calculate the chainage of a point of tangency if the point of intersection is at 300 m and the tangent length is 40 m.

💡 Hint: Think about how chainage is adjusted with tangent length.
