QUESTION RIVE
*) On a proposed road having a design speed of 100 kph and a carriageway width of 730 m. a composite curve consisting of two equal length cubic parabola transition curves and a central circular arc of radius 750 m is to join two intersecting straights having a divfortion angle of 093428. The rate of change of radial acceleration for the road is to be 0.3mss-3 and the superelevation should be introduced at a rate of no more than 1 N .
i. Calculate the amount of superelevation that must be built into the central circular are.
ii. Check that the trancition curves are long enough for the superelevation to be introduced.
iii. Calculate the amount of superelevation that should be constructed along the entry transition curve at 20 m intervals from the entry tangent point
b) The deflection angle between two intersecting straights is measured as 1428'26''. The straights are to be joined by a composite horizontal curve consisting of a central circular arc and two cubic parabola transition curves of equal length. The design speed of the road is 85 kph and the radius of the circular curve is 600 m . The rate of change of radial acceleration is to be 0.3ms-3. If the through chainage of the intersection point is 461.34 m , prepare the setting out tables for the three curves such that pegs can be located on the centre line at exact 20 m multiples of through chainage using the tangential angles method
