A simple circular curve of radius 30 chain length has been set out to connect two tangents with external deflection angle of 30°. The chainage of point of tangency is 300 chains. On further inspection, it is proposed to alter the radius of curve and point of tangency for revised curve. Also calculate the length of long chord for revised curve. Also calculate the length of long chord for revised curve. [Chain length = 20 m]
