Two converging tangents have azimuth of 300° and 90° respectively, while that of the common tangent is 320°. The distance from the point of intersection of the tangents to the point of intersection of the second curve is 100 meters. The stationing of the point of intersection of the first curve is 10 + 400. If the radius of the first curve is 285 meters; (a) Determine the radius of the second curve. (b) Determine the stationing of point of reversed curvature. (c) Determine the stationing of point of tangency.

Curve setting

A curve is a turn that is provided horizontally or vertically in the design of highways, railways, and runways. A curve connects two straight lines that are separated by the deflection angle. It helps to change the direction and alignment of the highways, railway tracks, and runways. Therefore, the gradual change in their alignment is made by using a curve to provide comfort to the passengers and this also provides an easy turn to change the direction of the moving vehicle.
