Two straight roads intersect at chainage of 15,000 m and have external deflection angle equal to 100°. The road bend is to be designed for maximum speed of 80 kmph, maximum centrifugal ratio of 1/4 and a maximum rate of the change of acceleration of 0.3 m/sec³. The curve consists of a circular curve and two cubical parabola. Calculate: (i) the radius of circular curve (ii) length of transition curve (iii) chainage of all junction points
