The design speed is 60 mph.A vertical curve is needed to join to tangents; G₁=0% and G₂=-5%. Assuming a level grade (0%) for braking, and the AASHTO recommended values for deceleration and perception-reaction time, calculate the minimum length of curve (ft) needed to satisfy the safety criteria. The design speed is 70 mph. Response Feedback: G2-G₁ is negative, therefore a crest curve. A=5 SSD(0%)=726.8 ft If you assume SA curve of 100 m radius (e-8.0 % and fs-0.14) is located at a section of an existing rural highway which restricts the safe speed to 55 % of the design speed causing a high accident rate. To reduce the accident rate, a new curve is to be designed. Determine the minimum radius of this curve if the safe speed should be increased to the design speed. Assume the same values of e and fs.b. A valley (sag) curve is formed by a descending gradient of 1 in 50 which meets an ascending gradient of 1 in 40. Design the total length of the valley curve, if the design speed is 80 km/h. so as to fulfill both comfort condition and head light distance for night driving, after calculating SSD required.
