Q 3: A horizontal curve of a 4-lane undivided highway is built in acut section
of side slope 3:1. If the design speed is 100kph, station of P.I=(55+00. Shoulder
width = 1.5m, e=8%, q=1.5%, t=2.5sec, g=1.5% and A= 45°
1. Determine the min. lane width that would allow a safe operaion on this
curve?
2. Draw the cross section at station (56+00) and at station (70+01)?
