Problem #5
A compound horizontal curve is composed of 2 circular curves. The end of curve 1 is the beginning
of curve 2 (POC). Data is provided as follows:
Curve 1:
Radius = 270.0 feet
Central (Intersection) angle = 28°00'00"
Curve 2:
Radius = 650.0 feet
%3!
Central (Intersection) angle = 42°00'00"
The beginning of curve 1 is located at station 20+00.0. Determine the stations of the POC, PI, and
EC of curve 2.
