A horizontal curve on a four-lane (two lane in each direction) highway (11-ft lanes) has PC at station 124+30 and PT at station 130 + 15. The central angle is 40 degrees, the superelevation is 0.12, and 23.5 ft is cleared (for sight distance) from the inside edge of the innermost lane. Determine a maximum safe speed (assuming current design standards) to the nearest 5 mi/h.

A vertical curve joining a (-5%) and (+3%) grades in a rural highway has a design speed of 100kph. The tangents intersect at a station (225+71.35) at an elevation of 290m. Caleulate the elevations of intermediate points on the curve each 100m, and determine the stations and elevations of PVC, PVT.

4. Horizontal Curve: P.C. 12+00.00 P.I T 4= 30° P.T. This highway has a 60 mph speed limit requiring a minimum radius for any curve to be 1500'. If the curve is to begin at Station 12+00.00 and is to have a radius of 1610.10', how long will the curve be? At what station will the PI and PT go? How long will E be? (Answers should all be in hundredths.)
A vertical curve is needed to join to tangents; G₁=1% and G2-4%. 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 60 mph. Response Feedback: G2-G₁ is positive, therefore a sag curve. A=3 SSD(0%)=565.5 ft If you assume SL, Lmin-340 ft. SSD is greater than Lmin. The assumption is good.
A simple horizontal curve has 35 degrees of curvature and subtends an angle of 110 degrees. If the PC is at station 3 + 65.00 ft, what is the last deflection angle (degrees) (i.e. the angle subtended by the roadway between the last full station and the PT)? Response Feedback: ΔΙ L
