A. Reversed curve with diverging tangents is to pass through three lines to form a center line of a proposed road. the first line AB has a bearing of N 88° E. and a distance of 125 m., BC has a bearing of N 60° E and a distance of 350 m., while on that of CD has a bearing of S 40° E and a distance of 305 m. If the first tangent has a distance of only % of the common tangent measured from the point of intersection of the first curve determine the radius of the curves and station of PT if PC is 12 + 350

Highway Surveys and Location

Surveying is an operation in the civil engineering domain that requires collecting and identifying data regarding an area of land and topography. The data that is collected can be helped to plan and undertake the construction process. Civil engineers perform surveys to gather three-dimensional information regarding a particular area. Engineers specify several points on the surface of the earth and relationship between points, and the distance and angles between the points are evaluated. The data from this evaluation guides in drawing plans regarding buildings and structures.
