Question

A compound curve has a common tangent 520 m. long. The first curve passing
through PC is a 3-degree curve with a central angle of 50°. Second curve has a central angle of 35°.
10. Find the tangent of the second curve.
11. Find the radius of the second curve.
12. Find the length of the second curve.

 

A reverse curve has a radius of the curve passing through PC equal to 200 m. and that
of the second curve passing through PT is 460 m. long. If the central angle of the second curve is 12°,
19. Determine the perpendicular distance between two parallel tangents.
20. If the stationing of PC is 2 + 360.20, find the stationing of PRC and PT.
