3 simple curves are connected to each other such that the first and second curves form a compound curve while the second and the third curves forms a reversed curve. The distance between PC and PT of the compound curve which is also the PRC of the second and third curves is 485.025 m. If the angle of intersection of the common tangent and the third tangent between the second and third curve is 15°, 11 = 45°, R1=190.986m, 12 = 60° R3 = 159.55 m and the stationing at PC is 0+520, determine the stationing of PT (at the first compound curve.)

Question
3 simple curves are connected to each other such that the first and second curves form a compound curve
while the second and the third curves forms a reversed curve. The distance between PC and PT of the
compound curve which is also the PRC of the second and third curves is 485.025 m. If the angle of
intersection of the common tangent and the third tangent between the second and third curve is 15°, 11 = 45°,
R1=190.986m, 12 = 60° R3 = 159.55 m and the stationing at PC is 0+520, determine the stationing of PT (at
the first compound curve.)
