Question
A reverse curve has the following properties.
.
• D₁ = 3.86°
• D₂ = 2.97⁰
• I₁ = 19.00⁰
• 12 = 28.64°
Another straight road intersects with the reverse
curve at PRC. The length of this road spans the
center of the first arc to the center of the second
arc.
The following are the cost index and specifications:
Type of Pavement Portland Cement Concrete
Pavement
Number of Lanes = Two Lanes
Width of Pavement = 4.0m per lane
The thickness of Pavement = 268 mm
Unit Cost = Php 1,685.53 per cubic meter
The road engineer wishes to compute the total cost
in pesos for both roads. How much is it? Assume
chord basis.
