Downvote for wrong answers A section of a roadway has a horizontal curve with superelevation of 6% and central angle of 40°. The design speed of the section is 60 mph. There are two lanes on the curve, each 12 f wide. Determine: (a) The degree of the curve. (b) The length of the curve. (c) The minimum distance of an obstruction from the centerline of the innermost lane.
Question- If design velocity on the curve is 80 kmph then find the design super elevation on a 3 degree horizontal curve for narrow gauge track.
at what maximum speed in kph, could a car pass through a spiral easement curve without overturning if the raidus of the central curve is 180m and the superelevation is 0.12m per meter of roadway?
An equal-tangent vertical curve is designed for the year 2030 for a design speed of 70 mi/h to connect grades G1 = 1.2% and G2 = - 2.1%. In 2030, vehicles have become smaller so that the driver's eye height is assumed to be 3.0 ft above the pavement and roadway objects are assumed to be 1.0 ft above the pavement surface. Compute the design curve length for the year 2030. A. 1178.02 В. 1032.09 C. 974.12 D. 980.25
A delivery truck passes thru the expressway exit ramps at a design velocity of 50 kph. connects with a local road to allow ram traffic to turn right without stopping at an acceleration of 1.57 m/sq.s. The turning roadway has stabilized shoulders on both sides and provides for a one-lane one-way operation with no provisions for a passing stalled vehicle. Super elevation on the turning roadway is 0.08. Determine the minimum radius of curvature for the ramp in meters.
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.
3.44 A horizontal curve on a single-lane freeway ramp is 400 ft long, and the design speed of the ramp is 45 mi/h. If the superelevation is 10% and the station of the PC is 18+ 25, what is the station of the PI and how much distance must be cleared from the center of the lane to provide adequate stopping sight distance?
A horizontal curve is being designed to connect two tangents that intersect on a rural collector road with a specified design volume of 2500 veh/day (i.c. design speed 60 mph). It is expected that, because of right-of-way restriction, a large billboard will be placed at a distance of 50 ft from the centerline of the inside lane. If the terrain can be described as level and only a minimal amount of snow is expected on the road, determine the minimum radius of curve. Assume maximum superelevation rate (e) of 0.1 and fs=0.12. Ans: 1090 ft
A new highway is designed to join a crest curve with +1.0% and -0.5% grades for PVC and PVT, respectively. Knowing that the stations of PVC and PVI are STA 51+25 and STA 56+90, examine whether or not the curve is long enough to provide passing sight distance when the design speed is 60mi/h.
A horizontal curve is to be designed to connect two tangents on a rural principal arterial with a design speed of 110 km/h. The station of the BC is 545+13.65. It is expected that an existing building will be located at a distance of 15 m from the centerline of the inside lane. Determine the minimum radius that will satisfy the sight distance and superelevation requirements.
A section of a two-lane rural highway consists of a -3% grade intersecting a +4.5% grade. The speed limit on the highway is 55 mph. The height of headlights of an average car is 2.4 feet with a beam angle of 1.50. Determine the length of sag vertical curve that joins the two grades, considering a safe stopping maneuver
